Thank you.
I searched - one single post - the one you put in part of. Edited. Point remains - you love losses, hate wins, IMO. I don’t know why - perhaps to prove a point about the GM or something.

Acquiring players on trade deadline day and July 1st are the worst two days in hockey for most GM's.
He should do it tomorrow then.

This is a strange post to me..I only saw the third period mind you but the Flames were launching an ASSAULT on the kings net and getting the puck to the net quickly and with urgency. They definitely willed it to 4-3 and unfortunately that Carter goal was a hell of a shot and Kopitar was just good in the faceoff dot when he needed to be.

Can't speak the game as a whole, but I saw a group that was rallying hard and I thought might tie it. Rittich breaks his stick on the back breaker... that doesn't exactly say I don't care. Effort was too late I guess?

It's weird how much you enjoy putting words in my mouth. I don't think saying "the Flames have played excellent hockey 5v5 two games in a row" is showing my hate for winning.

Not to mention Brad Treliving is by far the best GM we've had in a long time.

Keep doing you though

PP chipping in is a great bonus
So it’s the post you partly quoted, except for the 20 minutes part I recalled. It’s your one single post in the PGT.

9th place finish is about what we can expect.

I guess I'm willing to accept the season as yet another lost season, but they better make the right moves before the trade deadline (unload Hamonic, don't buy)

This makes me shake my head, pretty much every game.

I still have the flashback of Buddy Robinson dumping it in to the corner for Johnny to go retrieve.

I mean if you are going to give Gaudreau and Mangiapane top 6 minutes, how the heck can you decide to play dump and chase.

Usual idiots are taking over the losing PGT

Hope the Flames win tomorrow...a 3-1 road trip is very good I don't care who they played

LA has beat Edmonton, Vegas, Phoenix, Vancouver, too...I guess none are making the playoffs

Oh, I don’t think that sentence shows your hate for winning, I think your general posting does. Hate is probably too strong though. I think you just enjoy complaining about the losses more. As for the reasons, I was only guessing.

I've seen some talk that Nino Niederreiter might be available in Carolina... I wonder if Treliving might look at that.

The way he's playing, he could certainly use a change of scenery.

Jesus. Go to the post I made right before that. I quoted it word for word.

Sure, technically it's the "one single post in the PGT" but the post I quoted was at the end of the game in the GT.

But sure, you can feel like you have the victory here because I have no idea what you keep going on about

It was all a plan to humble brag about living out of a Motel 6 in suburban Florida.

So you told me to go look in the PGT to find your “posts” and then rebut what I said with a post that’s not there? OK.

My point is stated above.
