And this is probably the worst season for that. The draft is going to be a disaster most likely as the draft eligible players are barely playing, if at all. It would be the most Calgary Flames thing ever to get a really high pick and have very little to base our pick on, and select a dud.

MAYBE THE COACH IS INSOLATION?

BTW I really think this is the worst sportsnet crew in a long time.



Boring, Oiler cheerleading for most of the game, and can I say again boring.

I wish Torts was coach. He would say exactly what is wrong with this garbage team.

Does Bennett even get on the plane in about an hour? May as well leave him behind for his own sake at this point.

Get Sutter then? He is in Alberta. Just a week of isolation for him

Ward just signed a 2 year deal months ago. He’s not getting fired 17 games into the season. Like it or not, he’s here for at least the year. He may not be a good coach but we’ve gone through 4 coaches in 9 years, at what point do we put some onus on the players?

This is just garbage. Smith in their net, they had less than 25 shots, their big guns were no-shows and we still find a way to lose.

I really don't think that means a whole lot when all of those coaches have been not good.

Hmmm...

“Outwork the opposition “

Are you sure Flames want to hire this guy?

Did he mention one word of strategic changes?

forget all the bizarre player choices and everything else...

IT IS ####ING BORING HOCKEY!

To me, that is the biggest crime here. If ST renewals were this month, there is no way that i would be dusting off the wallet

Hell, I don't care about isolation, Huska can run the bench for a week or two

Can we set up a fundraiser to get Hartley out of Avengard Omsk and back here? I can donate a couple hundred rubles.

Why in the world would anyone want Tre to fire Ward? Tre should be fired first.

My 4-year old was interested in watching games with me earlier in the season, and I was contemplating on buying her a children's Flames jersey for her birthday. I kyboshed that idea a few games ago, at this point I think trying to encourage her to be a Flames fan would be tantamount to child abuse

Normally I'd say it's the players, but Ward is just that bad that you can't even blame the players.

4 garbage bin coaches? Hire a legit coach and see what happens.
