He's been calling the Flames a bunch of losers as long as I can remember.

Pulled the goalie with over 8 mins left. I guess they've got nothing to lose

What ever happened to reasonable discussion? Why is everyone so black and white about everything? And if people don't agree, retort with sarcasm
Sorry. I just didn't like the incorrect accusation of moving goalposts.

Outside of the sharks and perhaps yotes, it just feels like the other Pacific teams have an upward trajectory over the next few seasons. Flames on the other hand are stuck in the middle, as usual.

I think the flames would happily trade Gaudreau for any of those guys other than miller right now. Gaudreau is talented but easily neutralized.

I'm not saying their top talent isn't more valuable I'm saying that's not the reason they're still in.

Boeser isn't the player that Gaudreau is. And Miller certainly isn't.

Horvat is a different kind of player (Lindholm being a better comparable)

Congrats canucks, didn’t think you would take out the cup champs. Definitely a big step fwd for that organization. I too am jealous as a flames fan. Their stars were their best players and depth guys like Motte and Beagle contributed.

I’m tired of hating. Want to see a Canadian team that actually gives a ####. Go Canucks!

Jim Benning is a solid GM who has built a pretty good team in Vancouver.

Props to VAN for doing what almost everyone here thought was impossible less than 10 days ago. They showed a lot of heart in this series. I'm looking forward to facing them again in the first round next year.

Honestly as much as I want to hate this Canucks team because of who they are, they are a likeable team.
