Bad coaching
Bad special teams
Horrible 1st and 3rd
Players that look disinterested/hurt

Not a lot of positives to find right now. Tumble down the standings needs to end

The Calgary Lames. The epitome of mediocrity for over two decades.

I can't handle this 'playing not to lose' BS anymore. Because you do that, you're more times than not, gonna end up losing. I have no idea how people can support Gulutzan still since he continues to under-deliver results.

This is not fun to watch. As long as he's around, I may have to avoid watching games period since they're just gonna lose anyway.

We've all seen it before many times. We know what a team looks like when they're defeated. That is a team that looks defeated. It's over. This season will not be salvaged. Losing that top 15 pick will make it all the more agonizing.

Can we leave this brand of hockey in 2017 please? Let's start 2018 with a fresh beginning, a new coach. A new PP. A new PK.

...I'll dream.


We’re all dreaming. He just won’t be gone until the end of the season. At best the trade deadline, where they will be selling.

Pathetic franchise.

Have I said before the NHL has an officiating issue? I don't know how much more NHL hockey I can stand to watch with just how bad the officiating is.

Needed 58 more minutes of that urgency they showed at the end.

I was ok with the loss in San Jose as the team looked good and it was a very good hockey game. This game was back to the craptastic team we've all grown to hate.

Meh, what did you expect? The team to play inspired hockey and the coach to outcoach the other team??? Thanks for watching, here's Stajan and Brouwer!

Zero shots for 15 mins into the 3rd, in a division battle with a team we are fighting with and only having 15 total shots going into the third... that’s unacceptable.

I’m done with this coach.

Stupid loss. Flames might have ''broken'' the curse last game, but all that makes it is 1 win in the last 14 years there. That ####hole is still cursed land.

Flames were outplayed for the most part and Smith kept them in it. But he was definitely the goat on the winning goal. I've said it many times; he needs to let his D play the puck and stop shooting off the glass when a D is right there. Can't fault him too much though, without him it's an ass whipping on the score board.

And Bennett WTF on the empty net. Electing to try some forehand move instead of shooting into an open net.

The game was there for the taking and they didn't' capitalize when they had the chance.

This season isn't any fun at all.

Really uninspiring tbh. There is some element of heart or belief missing.
