Meh... I scream at the flames play and the the broadcast team about the same every Saturday night. I’ve just come to terms that the flames aren’t an exciting team to talk about compared to just about anything.

People who whine about the PBP people or color commentators, men, women, different ethnic background or not, are simply the worst.

First world ####ing problems.

Grow up and shut the #### up, you're a child bitching about childish things. Watch the hockey game and enjoy the privileges you have to be able to do that. There are an imaginable amount of people in the world, to you, that will never have that privilege you selfish brats.

Good night.

Amazing how fast Gio declined. I honestly think he needs to get bumped down.
Leivo, he's actually pretty terrible. Someone please tell me, show me how he's an NHL player. Marky should have stopped that last goal.
Hanifin can skate but somehow I question his hockey IQ.
Our defense is supposed to be better than Toronto yet we can never shut down Connie and Leona.
Sutter is an amazing coach but he isn't going to make chicken salad out of chicken turd.

Sutter would’ve beaten Tampa with the talent this roster has.

I'd like to hear more about Lindholm who is awesome. But listening to the broadcast you wouldn't know that they're aware of this at all.
Lindholm was a star tonight???

Lindholm is a decent 2nd line C. I actually notice backlund more.

Flames have one flawed star forward, gaudreau, let’s not fool ourselves.

The rest were going for a change. But Johnny would make it easier and maybe even get a steal if he stays on he puck a little longer. And the new line gets just a little more time to get one.

A loss is a loss. I can get over it. A losing streak, I can get over it. But a loss against the Oilers, it's unforgivable and it burns for a long time, let us grieve. This one takes time.

Sorry I totally disagree. That team had a superstar, a clutch goal scorer and a ton of grit. This team doesn’t even have one of those three items.

Exactly. I get angry when we lose to the Oilers. I'm baffled by the laissez-faire attitude of some. #### the Oilers and HNIC can get bent trying to knob slob everything the Oilers do.

Agreed. Iginla was a bonafide power forward game breaker, and arguably the best goaltender in the league over that half decade time period.

This team would get steamrolled in that era’s style of hockey.

Dang good luck in that case. Finally at the stage when the kids sleep thru the night. Now I can enjoy a nice beverage or two to get O.C. co to discuss the game.

And unfortunately we also get steamrolled in this era’s style of hockey...

What do you mean??? I’m obsessed with the flames. I have been since watching them win the cup when I was 8 years old.

I hate seeing this narrative. I love the Calgary flames, to the point it’s a sickness.

I have an absolute right to have an opinion on this team. And based on the last 30 years of precedence set by this dumbass franchise, maybe I am honest enough to not blindly show good faith in this year’s gm/coach/roster.
