[GT] Flames Vs. Jets: I’m eating skittles edition

[Aarongavey]

If Brad can add 6 or 7 good hockey players in the offseason and not lose the 6 good players we currently have, this could be a playoff team next year.

The guys I used to enjoy so rarely put in the effort to required to compete, it seems.

This is why I am worried about next season unless the Flames make some real changes. Something about this group, they seemed to play "if" they feel like it. .

He never is, for some people

In fairness, he isn’t responsible for the zero goals scored by his team, can’t win if they score zero.

But you don’t want to force them to have to put up 4

Always is for some people...blame the goalie for a 2 on 0 lol

Sure a big save would be nice but they have scored zero and all goals against are odd man rushes

The third period might be the first one I intentionally skip this season.

They’ve forced that themselves giving up a 3 on 1, a 2 on 0, and a breakaway.

That’s not Markstrom giving up those chances.

Hanifin seems like a good dude.

Me too. I've been a Flames fan since my dad took me to my very first NHL game at the Corral in 1981, and this current team is easily the worst Flames team I can remember. Even the Young Guns teams were sometimes fun to watch.

Yeah, Markstroms stared down some pretty dangerous chances that ended up in the net. Problem is Hellybuck has had to stop maybe 1 or 2 at the most of very dangerous chances. Off the top of my head one was the chucky post shot and the other was the redirected one that he had to react quickly to.

Flames aren't generating anything too concerning to the opposition.

True.

It’s not him stopping anything difficult either, would you disagree?

[Mr.Coffee]

Stajan is awesome at this.

[Makarov]

Love Stajan.

[dino7c]

1st goal is somewhat on Markstrom for sure

2 on 0's and breakaways are always on the skaters

He is, though this board sure disagrees with him on Wilson.

And Wheeler’s was pretty nice hands, too.

And I don't care that you don't care what I think.
