Just #### everything about this team.

Overthinking everything right now. Just shoot and work your ass off to retrieve the puck.

Geoff Ward can’t coach a PP worth a damn.

The players are sad sacks.

It is both.

The regular season success from last year has gone to their heads. Too many cute plays. Not enough effort.

It's funny how Tkachuk came out after one of his early disappointing games (in LA?) and blamed himself for the team being flat.

He's since had similar post game comments after many losses. He's sure playing like a player that missed training camp.

I think he's an awesome player overall, but not EVERY pass needs to be sneaky. It's infuriating when it doesn't work, which is often lately.

The mic’s caught a couple Flames screaming at each other after the first attempt to enter failed, as Rittich fired it back up:

“You put it in there”
Someone else:“You are the one who f’n one blah blah bla”

Lindholm Tkachuk Montanan and JG were the forwards.

Jarnkrok signed for 6 years at 2 mill per, almost a point per game this year. 2 goals tonight.
Arvidsson on a 7 year deal for 4.25 mill per.
Don't get me started on Forsberg, Ekholm, or Ellis contracts.

Plus they've only missed the playoffs twice or so in the past 12 years.

I hope Treliving is taking notes from GMs like Poile.

Have you been to a home game lately? Its pretty empty and I don't think they are selling out anymore. For good reason!

Just got back from some trick or treating. Saw them at 6 shots for.

Losers. What a group of losers.

Im not spending a single dollar on this garbage team and franchise. Waste of time. 1 up year (at best means a 1st round exit) followed by a down year. Same thing for a decade now.

Pretty sure he did know and tried to make some moves.

Many GM's have already said how hard it is making trades, in the cap era.

The timing of Valimaki going down was bad.

I guess there are only two questions left for the third. Will the Flames get to double digit shots by the 60 minute mark...and will Lindy's cousin get a shorthanded hat trick?

The players are absolute ####, but the coaching staff should recognize that, and try something different to simplify it for them so they can at least get a decent chance on the PP. They're up a man, and continually are unable to maintain control of the puck in the attack zone. It's unexplainable actually. They're worse when they have the man advantage.

Lol, him and Ekholm dive constantly. Not sure how they never get fined.

9 shots in 2 periods.

2 short handed goals in a row scored and assisted by the same 2 Preds.

Preds took a minute away from beating up the Flames and signed Austin Watson to an extension.

The constant whipping it around the boards when we do have possession is pathetic.

If the four top players are blaming each other for poor play and goals against while on the ice....

they need to be split up, or one of them has to go.
