[PGT] Flames lose 4-2, trail series 2-1

[Ashasx]

I honestly can't believe how listless the team looked in the last 5 minutes. Outside of the Gaudreau breakaway, there were zero chances for 5 minutes.

How does this always happen. Why is this the exact same way we played in 2019 and 2020.

What is going on

Why do I do this to myself

This team gets steamrolled by Nashville. If not them, then Edmonton.

Hell, this team we’re watching gets steamrolled by the Yotes.

Is this really the same ####ing team I was watching during the regular season? Where is the checking, cohesive play, crisp exits, what the hell has happened to their five on five play? I refuse to believe Oettinger is the difference. Secondary scoring has been no where. Toffoli has been fighting it for a calendar month now. Let’s bury these chances. Man this team makes it hard on itself

[iggyloob12]

First line had a lot of good looks. Wish we had a second line. Out-goalied.

[PostandIn]

Regular season warriors can’t execute in the post-season once again. Done in five. Pathetic.

[Monahammer]

Markstrom made some great saves but also coughed up some terrible rebounds. Jarnkrok has been one of the worst additions to the team in memory, forcing him at centre is destroying line chemistry imo.
Andersson playing like a punk instead of his normal self. First line looking straight cursed... Big muscle guys not pushing enough. Middle six doing nothing at all.

In spite of this we deserve a win in 2 of 3 (arguably 3 of 3). We can still take this. Team needs to clean up though.

[Macindoc]

Sutter, it’s time to bring some speed and skill into the lineup. Jarnkrok can sit, and reunite Coleman with Mangi and Backlund. And Tkachuk needs to calm the f down and remember that his job is to score.

[evman150]

Tkachuk was invisible. I wonder how badly he hurt his hand in the fight.

[Brouhaha]

Flames played well overall, but Stars still looked like the hungrier team and more aggressive. It's been said about a number of teams in the playoffs from some members here, but the Flames don't scare anyone, not from their performance these 1st 3 games, unfortunately.

[DJones]

I don't get how Gaudreau gets so much hate when Tkachuk has been so much worse in all of our playoffs

[ThisIsAnOutrage]

Way too many do-nothing guys on this team. Backlund, Jarnkeok, Coleman especially. Lucic Mangiapane and Toffoli simply refuse to score.

This is who the team is. Forget about what you can do, skate slow, shoot wide from the outside.

[agulati]

Lines into the blender for next game. Get Ruzicka in. Get Jarnkrok off the PP.

Just lose. I don't think I could deal with the oilers walking right over the flames next round.

Man I don't see how anyone can hang this on Markstrom. What a laughable opinion.

He's given up 4 goals in 3 games.

"Markstrom is not elite".

Idiotic.

[Scary Eloranta]

Better to be humiliated by Dallas than deadmonton I guess

Why do I ever bother getting emotionally invested in this team. It's just crushing to have my heart ripped out again and again.

[cznTiburon]

Lindholm 0-3 on face offs with goalie pulled hurts. We need someone who can win a damn face off at the end of the game

Rolled in every game that Colorado series. That is not happening here.

What's better?

[nik-]

Another example of why some people just couldn't get fully on board this season.

Show me in the playoffs. Well, they're showing it. It's trending to another waste of 82 games just to watch them limp dick it when it matters.

There's time for them to pull it out, but who knows if they can.

[indes]

Team doesn't have anyone who can even match 37 year old Joe Pavelski. Tkachuk looks like he broke his hand, good job hot rod.

[Racki]

I think a number of guys futures hinge on this series if we can’t come back and win. I think Johnny walks, Tkachuk gets traded, Monahan gets bought out and we re-sign Mangiapane. Rebuild in the fly.
