Interesting I thought they get paid for the remaining term. Example if Sutter chose to join the Flames. (3M from Flames and 3M from Kings) gotta do some digging on that.

Sorry and those people are Tanner Glass and Nick Shore?

Our coach is clueless. Christ even the morning show on the Fan 960 have had enough and they are basically paid advertisements for the Flames.

And even if I’m being hard on Tanner Glass, what the #### is Hathaway doing in the lineup anymore? He’s completely invisible, isn’t physical anymore and his gloves are glued on. Lomberg has to take here a fight for him in Long Island and tonight Kreider Challenged him to about 3-4 fights.
Hamonic has to step up like Lomberg and fight for him. Who’s more valuable on the ice? Hamonic or a plug like Hathaway? I guess it depends on who you ask. A reasonable person or the Glue Gun.

Not what I said. At all. You need to read my original post. Or don't. Whatever.

As much as I want Gulutzan gone we're stuck with him for the rest of the season playoffs or not. All we can do is hope Treliving finally admits he screwed up and is quick to pull the plug once the season is done.

Gulutzan system/tactics have not allowed this team to take a step. They both should be held accountable

This is true, Brad is a bad GM. I half expect him to trade our 2019 1st for Alex Formenton so he can recoup the 2017 2nd he gave up for Lazar.

But then I remember he gave away another 2nd, a 3rd, a 3rd, a 5th, a 1st, a 1st, a 2nd, a 2nd and think what is Brad to do, he is running out of picks. Trading all the picks worked out better for him in career mode on NHL 17 when he knew he was only going to play 3 seasons before NHL 18 came out.

Brad traded all those picks for Smith, Hamilton, Hamonic, Stone and Lazar....what a feeble return.

Thanks, feel better about your qualifications.

Really frustrated with this team. Not sure what needs to change for things to improve, but as has been said this team just isn't a lot of fun to cheer for.

I'm not giving up on them, but I am taking a break from CP. That's not to say this PGT is awful or anything, I just find I get more depressed and angry when I'm following everything intently. So I'm choosing not to.

Here's hoping we can recover and still make the playoffs.

Go Flames!

Chalk this up to Henry standing on his head, Flames with several S.O.G but not much willing to have traffic out front and way too much support passing as usual.
I find these type of games were a team is hard on the puck vs Monahan he just goes quietly into the night.
Johnny dangled but just wasn't their night I guess.

Highlight of the night had to be these great Ranger fans the 4 of them every season pick a 3 game road trip and travel with their team. This year it was Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Great bunch of fans straight from NY.

Unfortunately on this Flames roster, yeah.They aren't going to score any less than any of the other guys who can't score.

4 of the 5 players you mentioned are NHLers. Do you understand how much of a crap shoot draft picks are? I think those are great returns on draft picks considering how many on average bust.

The collection of them making a winning team is a different story, but trading for NHL players is a huge win IMO

I think I need to divest myself a little bit from hockey right now. I get so frustrated and depressed when I see the team fall flat on their face repeatedly, with no first round pick to fall back on.

[RoughRiderRowdy]

No more 3rd line grinder acquisitions, trade two d men they are all terribly overrated this team has one problem and its SCORING

[The Familia]

Why are people still watching this ####? I tuned out weeks ago. Everyone bitches and complains about this team but gets sucked in game after game. If we want change the only way to achieve it is with an empty building and no one watching. Only then will the message be delivered.

That's a hell of a plan.

[RoughRiderRowdy]

Lets trade for every 3/4 line grinder thats "great in the locker room" this teams a joke, this team does not take winning seriously including management
