You gotta know Cameron stinks when basically the entire forum agrees he sucks. How often does this entire community agree on anything?

I think GG comments on the PP yesterday, pretty much confirms that players are struggling mightedly. On the 5v3 he said there were a number of looks they should have taken, but didn't. They need to get the puck to the net, but instead they are moving the puck slowly and firing passes into the skates of teammates.

They have all the talent they need to be successful, they are just over thinking things and making poor decisions.

Doesnt it seem like the powerplay is to simple/predictable, and the puck movement is slow. Needs to be quicker movement of the puck and guys moving their feet, as well as some seam passes.

This power play needs a reboot. Is it crazy to make a change mid season? I'm thinking it can't be much worse.

I remind myself that if Trump can be president, it explains how Cameron can be a NHL coach.

Now my question is why do the Flames, or any other team, continue to employ him?

Flames have 25 games left. Make the right move and get someone who knows what they are doing running the PP. This team always takes the longest time with making the most obvious moves.

That's what's so crazy about this, what is the downside? The PP continues to suck?

Send this clown packing!

Someone should have tricked Dave Cameron to go ride in Elon Musk's Tesla Roadster just before they shot it into space. Our PP is our team's downfall right now. The team converts one or two of those tonight and things change drastically.

Still relevant.

Letting him go / change roles would be the equivalent of a deadline acquisition tbh.

Firing Cameron would be a good start Treliving.

It still blows my mind that he was hired to handle the powerplay... His powerplays on his former teams were ABYSMAL as well... so we go and hire him? How. What.

That’s what happens when you have connections, really ridiculous hire after being ran out of town in Ottawa.

This teams PP numbers would get the team killed in the playoffs.

Christ, if the Flames want to save face keep Cameron around and bring Gelinas down from the press box to do the PP. The one he was running wasn't great either but it was world's better than this mess!
