Walk this one off, gear up for TB. We're gonna lose games. And losing 2-0 with the type of game the Flames played tonight isn't a bad thing. Kind of tells you where their bar is set.

I fully expect a massive effort next game. And some healthy bodies coming back in.

Could use less Prout.

That was boring as hell.
Also, Polak is a caveman.

Not a good game, refocus for Tampa.

Honestly the most exciting part of the night for me was hearing Loubardias step up and do the radio play by play all by himself without color commentary. He did a really nice job under the circumstances.

Even in a really bad game they were a crossbar and missed empty net away

The thing is, how often do the Flames come out like that? With how the Flames have played this season I don't see why this game should worry anyone. They will be fine.

Yeah but they have lost two to the Stars, two to the Canadiens, Canucks, Blues, and Oilers. Life could be so much easier if they could put away the bad/mediocre teams.

A lot of shutouts for such a quality season. Annoying as hell when they have these stinkers and turn it on too late to salvage. Just like in Edmonton.

Don't just not play cause it's the third in four.

Please come out guns blazing on Thursday.

Please don't use a loss, in a game Rittich was stellar, as a reason to start Smith vs Tampa at home.

Need some bodies back in the lineup, depth starting to become an issue when the top line doesn’t carry the day.

How many times does Calgary play 3 in 4 this year? Seems quite often.

Can't even be mad. With how this team has played in the last 6 weeks or so there was bound to be a let down game.

If Ryan buried that tap in, I think they could atleast get a point out of it, but it was a deserved loss. Canīt expect to comeback everytime after being outplayed for 40 minutes. Rittich was good again, so thats one positive thing about it.

There is absolutely no reason to start Smith at home.

Just didn't have it tonight. Horrible effort level in the first two periods, and Bishop just seems to have our number right now. 2 out of 3 on this road trip considering 2 afternoon games and back to back and three on four nights... is a good trip.

Preds and ducks both had themselves one of these games. Good timing on the OOT.
