I thought they would be motivated to play spoiler against the Flames before the Jets got a win tonight, but I bet they're feeling extra motivated knowing that they can end the season for the Flames tonight .

It is weird that we have an award for best defensive forward, but not best offensive defenceman.

James Norris: Best Defenceman

Bobby Orr(?): Defenceman who best excels in the offensive aspects of the game.

My partner likes to say, "the flames don't have a game breaker and coincidently, games dont seem to often break their way."

Flames are really good at talking a big game. Saying all the right things. But rarely delivering. Snake oil salesmen.

I just came from the future to tell you all the flames will miss the playoffs.
Sutter back to the farm.
The wizard is going to Bermuda.
Mitch Love will have his kids next year.
Hope everyone likes Conroy talking your ears off.

I’d settle for Norris still going to scorers and a Langway award for defensive D men. Tanev would have been up last year.

I’m okay with all of this. Announce a rebuild to take the pressure off of Love’s shoulders.

I agree with Bieksa. Karlsson is barely a defenceman, he’s a 4th forward on the ice IMO.

Sutter will be back
Huby will be back
Kadri will be back
Tre will be back

Conroy will be back

That’s freaking weird that Kyle Dubas told Keefe to put that guy in the game…and that Keefe did it! Crazy to see a coach and GM communicating.

I may not be back.

TBF, while it sometimes happens that the puck just hits the glove, it looked on the replay like Demko actually moved the hand to make that save. It was a highlight reel one IMO.

4 out of 5 correct.

Watch Wolf get called up after a loss tonight and puts up two shutouts to end the season. Crazy to think we’re sitting on the best goalie outside of the NHL and he didn’t get a sniff this season. Disappointing. Even top 20 goaltending would have us in the playoffs this season.

Sign Corey Perry to a 3 year deal and go for it.

Gave the frog a couple grubs. Hoping for some magic. Not sure even the frog can save these guys tonight.

Might as well. It was already 7-1 in a meaningless game anyway, give him the thrill of a lifetime.

Their actions do all the talking.

100 percent to protect him from a very toxic environment. When players flash their NMC papers at the coach because they don’t like his intensity. This is the softest bunch of players getting paid top dollar I’ve ever seen.

Tree will be gone.
Sutter will take over as GM so Murray doesn't have to pay him out.
Lucic and Lewis to new deals.
