I'm quite curious to see what Kadri brings tonight. Will he put in effort to attempt some redemption, or will he just dig a deeper hole?

Yeah, it's one thing to coast all game, it's another to be the obvious goat (not the good kind) and cost your team the game with your poor play.

If he gives a **** he will play with some more jam tonight. If he doesn't, well then...

I'm expecting a big win tonight. Just when you think they're done, they pull one out of their hat to give fans new hope.

The media is really on his case. You'd hope that would light a fire under him.

The Flames should play like they care. Give us a little hope for next season.

Literally just some gasp of air from the “top” players that shows their terrible season might be an anomaly and not the normal. Even if we lose. Just *something*

I think they care but the lack of talent kills them. An average team without top end talent, at the backend the subpar goaltending finish the job.

The coach adds the salt in the wound.

They will get one or two lucky goals in the first then can't protect the lead. Goes OT and will loose as usual.
Tonight we will be 3 points back with a game short.
Anyway, I like Jets gets 8th as they have a more chance to beat Oilers than us.
They have way better goaltending.

My expectation is we either see a game where the Flames show up and play a competitive game where they grind out a close win, or they get blown out something like 5-2 or 6-2.

Because he should not be on the ice.

They should’ve benched him after that brutal giveaway last game. The first one.
Absolutely egregious. I want to blame the long season last year, but the decisions he’s making and selfishness with the puck give me pause. Either way, he would benefit from some rest.

Expecting game to be over in the first 10 min. just like the Jets took care of the Devils. Flames just don't have the will to make the playoffs, they want a summer vacation.

Really debating watching this one. One one hand it's a big game. On the other hand, while odds are against them making the playoffs and not to get my hopes up, a loss plus hearing all about Mcdiver and the no-goods likely beating up anaheim tonight will still royally **** me off.

I think you have it put Pelts in and go with Markstrom. Season is on the line. Looch needs some rest. Gonna need this win and the a lot of luck but I still have a sliver of hope. Go Flames go!

May as well try swapping Markstrom and Kadri’s position. It can’t be worst right?
