The hirings afterwards were bad and are the problem.
Ah, gotcha. Yes, I agree.

The Flames getting six shots in nearly half a game against the Senators should probably be enough to get Ward replaced.

How does Kylington sit tonight?

How does a coach so consistently misread his players?

Down 3-1 and Ward sends out Nordstrom, who makes a stupid play and sends the puck back the other way for a scoring chance.

regroup. get back to controlling the puck and making good passes. do the same things as the looch goal. possession movement. use the d to keep plays alive.

keep working and mindful of the counters.

We are up to 6 shots on goal. Pretty close to blender time when we keep Lindholm at center and move Buddy up to the first line and call it a day.

Oh for sure, I know who's fault it is. Definitely not the players making the stupid passes.

Over the last 47 minutes of regulation, the Flames have 8 5v5 shots (9 total) and have given up 27 (31 total).

Quality hockey.

Seems they don't want to pass to whoever is on their line. Even on the Monahan crossbar Bennett was wide open.

Anyone else feel like they just don't care?

Or is it just a bad structure?

Or maybe it's maybelline

Poor Rittich. Behind this miserable excuse for a team it probably seems more like his 4th game in 2 nights.

He was a good soldier for a lot of years but you need to sell high and put him out to pasture
Was a bit suspect to sign him for 6 years at 6.75/year beginning when he was already 33. Good value for the first 3 years I guess, but weighing the team down in the final 3.

I don't blame Gio he's getting old and is the oldest captain in the league I think.
