That’s it, I’m done. 3-0 now. Sick and tired of watching the Flames chase the Oilers all over the ice!!

Getting shellacked by the Oilers when you have 5 NHL regulars in the lineup is a real gut check

Like we are playing a bunch of scrubs. Team looks like it lacks talent and defence hasn't been good. Goaltending was pretty good. Hopefully the defence shapes up cause we have quite a few potential regulars in the lineup on d .

Flames seem like they're purposefully avoiding creating offense.

What an embarrassment tonight. I know it's only exhibition but watching this is eerily familiar. Fans deserve better.

Some of the guys that posters wanted to see are getting a chance tonight.

Will probably be their last chance, in this preseason.

Some of you guys are new to this "pre-season" thing, aren't you.

This is half of their defense corps.

All I want for Christmas is the Flames learning how to exit their own zone with regularity.

Just a reminder the Tampa Bay lightning lost their first preseason game the last 2 seasons.

I made that up, but preseason losses really do mean nothing.

Flames can't pass.

Flames can't shoot.

Flames can't defend.

Flames can occasionally hit.

Refs call everything against the Flames, and nothing against the Coilers.

Flames have put about 20% effort in. Coilers don't look great, but do appear to be playing guys that understand how hockey works. Flames appear to be playing guys that have never had skates on before.

Meh. People always put too much emphasis on the early preseason games, especially in a year where you play 8.

Honestly having more regulars dressed in an early pre-season game might be worse, they are going to care less than young guys.
