They should just have interim tryouts. Every 10 games, a new coach gets an audition.

Glad I hadn't even realized there was a game on. Holy moly, this looks pretty bad!

They are doing a whole lot of winging pucks around the boards so they don't strain themselves.

This is why I think Ward has to get fired after this game tonight. Will it solve everything? Good grief, absolutely not - but this team's culture is being poisoned by the current make-up, and it was already not in a very competitive place.

This time has NO fight in them. It's gone. I've never seen the team play this bad while also being this emotionless before.

We ridiculed the Oilers' losing culture for a long time, but this is what is being established in Calgary right before our eyes. This is losing culture taking hold and choking the last few breaths out of an already decaying corpse.

How many of you would be fired if you put this kinda effort in at work?

I don't think judging from the players faces that they realize just how ATROCIOUS it is to be in this situation.

Actually incredible.

Good luck defending this, captain/coaches/GM.

The Flames have been blown out 5-1, 7-1 and 5-1 (could grow larger) in their last 6 games.

The Flames have scored 5 games in a game twice all season.

Gio and Razzy dusting off the ol D-D blue line pass and low percentage slap shot wide of the net, an absolute classic.

Beat the best team in the league. Losing to the worst. That checks out.

They aren’t a decent team. They are a team with a few skilled but flawed players up front, a decent D which is one good man down because of Gio, and great goaltending when he’s healthy.

He should have been turfed after the Dallas series.

Oh good a morning game on Saturday. Those usually go well. And a date with the oilers amidst the Ottawa series next week. This keeps getting better and better.
