Could've won the Cup in '04 if they played more road games.

No but we should start wearing white and give the other team last change at the dome.

Serious about the wear white, try anything at this point.

Don’t shortchange the Leafs. They are very close to being as bad defensively as Detroit

The GM should make everyone live in Edmonton or Kelowna or something and fly into Calgary for all the "home" games. Maybe they will play better that way.

deja vu. Sounds like Gully's last year here. I wonder what's so difficult about home ice.

We should wear our road jersey instead. Or have the players stay in hotel instead.

On the tunnel bus back to Canada. We won! Of course they had to make it interesting at the end.

Their one win at home since January 11th was against Anaheim in their white heritage uniforms. Why not?

Start making the guys stay in a hotel downtown the night before home dates.

C'mon now. I did say they were only slightly less dreadful defensively than Detroit.

Lack of individual quality mental preparation.

The home struggles are a phase. The Flames were nearly unbeatable at the Saddledome in October—December, and hopefully they figure out how to play on home ice sooner than later, but they will get there.

Is it because it takes the line matching decisions out of Ward’s hands?

Boom, nailed the score in the GDT. Hooray for me

Two points is two points, whether you’re playing the best team in the league or the worst.

Really liking Yelesin’s game. Seems to be settling in and isn’t afraid to use his physicality. I know Gio is getting close to being healthy, so I’d like to see him get a chance to stay in the lineup in favour of Stone...
