Serious question, is there anything entertaining about this team? Slow, poor defence, don’t hit or fight much, no quality chances. This is as dull and frustrated I have been since the young gun days.

Flames make it so easy for the opposing goalie.

More likely the GM, although I’m hoping they will announce Kylington’s return.

You could almost come up with an excuse for every goal. Screened, hard impossible shots, deflection blah blah

But end of the day, you pay the guy top dollar to stop them.

It’s to the point you can predict what’s going to happen:

- if Markstrom is in net. Goal in the first 3 shots.
- minimum of 3 momentum killing penalties
- zero goals on powerplay
- 30 shots to get first goal

Horrendous.

It's more than just coaching. This roster as a whole just isn't good enough

Huberdeau got to touch the puck once on that sequence, and he made a nice pass. They are playing the powerplay on the wrong side.

Yes but no goaltender was going to stop the first one, that’s a goal every time

Don’t forget a couple of posts and tonnes of shots from the moon or weird angles

Greg Millen needs to become the main colour guy next season. Actually expresses critical opinions unlike Hrudey who only wants to say positive things. Kelly should stick to HNIC panel only.
