As bad and unpredictable the Oilers can be, the Flames have no answer to McDavid and Draisatl. That is the concerning aspect of it all. Especially to what we have seen from this years Flames team.

I almost feel shoveling my driveway has more fun than watching this hockey game on a Saturday night

Man... I am am so sick of this team being buried by bad goaltending. The forwards seem stabilized since Pelletier came up, the D is is good (really wish Kylington was around but it's decent even with him dealing with whatever he's dealing with)... but the goaltending... we can't do anything with Markstrom being whatever he is right now and Vlader is a backup goalie without starter upside.

Trade Vlader. Bring up Wolf. Give him 4 straight starts to acclimate to the league.

Tanev almost scoring in back to back games!

Saturday night not all right for fighting.

Markstrom not strong, but the team looks slow and confused up against a fast/large team, just like last year, and just like the year before that, and the year before that, and the year before that.

Tbh at this point I'm mostly watching this game for the Avs. They skate so well and support each other up the ice perfectly. The Flames are a long ways off from being a well oiled machine like that

yet we continue to bring in aging, slow players, with average skill.

Too bad Markstrom always take until the second period to find his game. At that point the Flames are usually out of it.

Pretty tough to get any confidence for offense when you're scared ####less that the next shot will go in.

Also not helpful with the icetime allocation for scorers versus plugs by Sutter. Honestly I hope he keeps pushing it as we will just keep losing.

They started off well but it’s 3-0. They pretty much gave up at 2-0.

Last year, you mean when they won the division and had the best line in hockey?

[TheSquatch]

Looch

Nighty night.

Truly tough to attract top end skill, and the team never finishes bad enough to draft it. So.. is what it is.

[Manhattanboy]

Looch!

Only bright spot on a dark night.

[Rejean31]

Holy ####, the Flames, or Lucic, won something!!
