Ignorance is bliss I suppose. But imagine your team losing 4-0 and at least having a smile at the end of the game. Now we get a shoulder to shoulder hit and the first thing out of the broadcasters mouth is ‘high hit’.

Robert: It's a seismic nightmare. It looks like it can never ever be fixed.
LOL. That gave me quite a chuckle.

The Flames will always be my #1 but all my other favorite pro sports teams are based in Seattle. Love the Hawks, the M’s and used to be a diehard Sonics fan. It’ll be fun next year root for a team with a clean slate. Cool story bro ...... I know.

They all need to go.

I know Gelinas personally, no matter what his accomplishments as an assistant I doubt he's a problem, If anything the hockey world needs more people like him.

We need a Cup winning goalie, a real coach and we'll start to be like Vegas. Easy enough.

The blow up, rebuild, re-tool, tear down - whatever it is, can not happen fast enough for me.
It’s sad to see it like this but if it helps speed it along, it’s a necessary evil.
Feeling very apathetic towards this group and not surprised it’s come to this

So choosing your head coach by "Who is available because the head coach is having a racism problem from his past" was maybe not the best "process" but I don't even blame the HC for this disaster.
Sam Bennett going public with his trade demand was pretty demoralizing , he doesn't want to be here and ...well here he is. its probably not super easy with covid, and the compressed schedule, and 14 day quarantines to even make a mid season trade. They look lost, the players are just looking for something to change ...and nothing really can.
So I guess we will just implode.

This. I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. The 25 year olds of today's hockey are like children. Just 20 years ago, the NHL's 25 year olds seemed like grown ass men willing to go to war with their teammates.

I haven’t seen the video but if this is true this is supremely disturbing.
This team has given me exactly ZERO reasons to be a fan. I’ve been a fan for 27 ####### years and aside from 2004 I haven’t seen a single season that was worth anything. 2015? Whoop-de-doo. Teams make the second round every year (unless you’re this pathetic franchise). 2019? Oh great, you finished 2nd in the NHL and still got bounced in round one.
#### this team and #### me for still being dumb enough to cheer for them. I’ll never stop being a fan, but I don’t know why I still cheer for them.

Yeah just swept by the Avs after they saw the ‘playoff strategy’ and put their game plan in place
Awesome that you watched a playoff win. Those are great to see. Fun nights every time
