I'm just joking, but what if we've entirely used up the new coach bump on that 10-0 Canucks game?

I wonder how long it would take to blow the team up? If the team starts off 3-10-2, would they finally be given orders to make real changes? If so, what major movies could be made (moving Hanafin and Lindholm are the obvious moves).
I obviously don't want to speak prematurely, but after keeping Backlund and changing the coach and manager, can that still happen? Or are we stuck with what we have?

Schwindt panics with the puck.

I really think the Flames need to claim someone off of waivers. It should be relatively easy to find a player better than Hunt or Schwindt for the 4th line.

If all the UFAs want out then the team will be basically be blown up.

These guys are an absolute mess in their own zone tonight. Couple that with no chemistry offensively and I think we are in for a depressing season.

Dube must be an advanced analytics monster or something because my eye tests of the last few years show very little.

Huska please try Huberdeau - Kadri - Lindholm as a line. In the shifts after the PK during the preseason they already combined for 2 goals.

I thought Huska says we were going to be creative in the offensive zone this year? I hope he is holding that back because so far this preseason I have not seen it.

The Flames still look like a very easy team to defend.

Thanks for reminding us the Canucks once had the ugliest jersey in hockey history.

Just so you know, one or more of the members here is keeping a tally of all this negativity and will be sure to hold it against you in future posts. So be careful with your opinions in this ' pre season.

This game underlines the problem of re-signing Lindholm for me. The day after you sign the contract, the product on the ice isn’t going to be any better but it *will* be about 9 million more expensive.
If you don’t re-sign him, it’s just going to look equally marginal.
Doesn’t seem a great risk reward in favour of signing.
