Why is Lindholm still at center?
How many odd man rushes has this Flames team had all season? That’s the real question.

Completely agree and 90+% of people saw it. The fact the GM didn’t and decided to go all-in with this group again, knowing we were heading into a season where player-based transactions would be nearly impossible, is startling.

Flames really put the work in night in and night out working on their game away from the puck

This team needs to stop with the button hooks. Just drive to the net.

Dube has an opportunity to blow past the defenseman and then blows snow. Frustrating.

Stop curling away from the net FFS.

Just drive the damn thing. Drive the damn net! For the love of god. This whole team curls away to the boards and stands still.

Yeah they are tired but i dont think conditioning is to blame.
Out of those 19 games, they've only played about 10 of them.

Their endurance should be maxed out

Tkachuk needs a night in the press box.
It's baffling how ineffective he looks.
Like, his effort level has been inconsistent, but even when he's putting in a good effort, it's just so... misdirected?

Imagine a typical CP rant, and then imagine an actual NHL player responding with an explanation of how things really are.

That was Francis vs Stajan.

I just wish the Flames had more young prospects playing.

That way, if the Flames lose, it's still fun when the young players do well and give you hope for the future.

As it stands now, it looks like the Flames are a veteran team that will pick 10th to 15th overall. Just like 2010 to 2013.

Yes, absolutely.

The only exception is on a follow-through while taking a shot (for some reason that never made a lot of sense to me).
