The latter was at a point where the Flames had scored and looked to be coming back hard. Just a terrible decision by a high IQ player.

That is the downside to these min-series. Of course, if we had a real coach, it wouldn't be a downside.

They were all holding their sticks the right way up.

But... they can’t pass skate shoot or save so.. uh... the main like “hockey parts” they didn’t do well at all.
One thing they did well and great was letting Gadwin do the solo lap during warmup for his first game. Small victories, I guess.

Bennett legally checked a guy and got a penalty for it. Wasn't stupid by Bennett, stupid by the refs.

ummm we are still making the playoffs in this crap division..

It was going just fine until idiot Backlund took that stupid penalty. Everyone just gave up after. Too bad our coach has no balls for accountability because he should have been benched for the rest of the game.

Also Tkachuk with his best game this season.... in a 7-1 loss. lol

This is the push back after all the talk in the media. Ward has lost the room, and Tre hitched his wagon to the wrong horse. But I still can't see changes coming this season. We have to ride this out till the offseason.

Lol Loubo passing off Backlund’s game ruining penalty as “a guy who is emotionally invested” and “won’t mention his name”

Wills is spineless, which is fitting for the team he covers.

No, it was 2:1 at the time. Oilers scored on the PP and the team went downhill from there.

He checked a guy (I missed who it was) then grabbed him by the neck and kind of wrestled him down. "Holding" but take your pick. Needless and dumb.

Team went downhill at the drop of the puck.

What three teams do you think the Flames are better than?

Edmonton? No

Winnipeg? No

Vancouver? Not really. They just embarrassed this team.

Ottawa? Maybe, but that’s yet to be determined.

This team is well below average.

Their best hope for this season is a COVID outbreak forcing the season to be cancelled.
