Did you just miss that boarding/crosscheck that the flames got away with blatantly?

Can’t wait for Dallas to get bounced by a real team like Vegas or Colorado.

If anything, I hope this playoffs earns Bennett a bigger spot on this team. Permanently

More Bennett/Dube/Mangiapane energy. Less Gaudreau/Monahan

You’re right.

But when the forwards aren’t good enough, the D aren’t good enough, the goalies are below grade and the head coach is in over his head, what’s going to happen is they will take turns losing you games.

There are problems littered throughout the lineup and the organization.

It’s not 1,2 or 3 things.

There is very little that is actually right here. A handful of skill sprinkled through the lineup.

Retool, from the GM on down. Edwards will never do that. Too lazy.
Game started at 3:30 am in London, he probably doesn't even know what's going on.

I assume he was commenting on your rather unfortunate typo...

Does Gaudreau in his Subban commercial count?

I can’t believe how angry I am at Geoff Ward right now.

Pulling Talbot in that situation to put in a guy who’s last real game action was March 8th is just an idiotic mistake.

Honestly I want him fired by the weekend.

2017, 2019, 2020 - these teams no showed in the playoffs and down the stretch drive when the games got tougher.

This team is not built as a playoff team. It never will be a playoff team with Monahan, Gaudreau, Giordano as our leaders and players we count on to show up.

End this. Just end this. The progress over last season is quite marginal. Flames had to be much better than this to move Dallas two steps backwards over where they made it last year. But what a pukefest of a series.

I’m going to watch to the end so I can feel good later when these players are shipped out for magic beans by whoever our next third rate GM is.

I think you need to go back and look at what I assume was a very unfortunate typo.
