At least when we lost they were competing hard and exciting. Much better than this snooze fest.

Stay golden, perhaps you could just put 'I hate Glen Gulutzan and everything he does' in your sig, then only post when you have something slightly different to say.

Ignoring the fact that we are currently losing which is making it worse, am I the only
One who feels they wouldn’t watch a Western Conference Game if the Flames weren’t in it? I just find it is boring compared to when I watch an Eastern Conference game. The East games just seem to much faster and fluid.

He has been the coach for one year and we made the playoffs. This team is still doing all the bad habits they had under Hartley and they need to listen to the coach. How can you listen to GG in interviews and not see this is not a coaching issue? It is players not playing the system or showing discipline issue.

The game isn't played on paper as we an Flame fans with the best D on paper in the league should know.

Defending champs? Wha?

That's not true at all. Gulutzan will yell and scream when he needs to, but like most modern coaches, he picks his spots so that the team doesn't tune him out.

Tonight would be a good time to do that.

Way to work that audio SN.

That's how you kill a penalty.

Flames are so passive on the PK, it's like they are just daring the other team to make a big play.

I don't understand the patience with this guy. Weird line combos, forcing people to play at a position they are not suited for (Brodie/Bennett), he is insanely obsessed with L/R d pairings, his teamn is undisciplined, he clearly plays favourites and his defensive team gives up a ton of shots.

This guy's is just not a good NHL coach.

Jeebus. Bennett was a centre coming out of junior, and was drafted as a centre. And you know who else slavishly follows L/R pairings? That crappy Mike Babcock. It's funny about line combos. Last year GG haters complained he didn't change his combos enough. Now it's too much. And what is the weird combo? Ferland on the top line (which worked last year)?

Yes, they competed so hard they ended up with a top 5 pick.

Hartley's special teams were worse, quite a bit worse. And they didn't win any more frequently than under GG.

Gaudreau and Monahan just racked up more points at even strength, often from stretch pass plays.

So you're saying you'd like to watch overall sloppier hockey with more goals against and a handful more goals off the rush from the top line?

This is the last game thread i read in a long time. Sounds like a bunch of pathetic canucks fans in here

Tell me smart ass what has Gulutzan established as the Flames identity. Because nobody seems to have that answer.

Exactly my point. They SHOULD be good, they LOOK like crap. A lot of the problem has to be systems/coaching.

[Jore]

tbh they were pretty good at even strength. kulak, bennett, and jankowski looked good

discipline and special teams pathetic

I agree, but look at the pieces GG has over what Hartley had

You can chalk that up to HilleRamo.
