Huberdeau with literal zeroes across the board (if you ignore his -3).

So here we are with Maloney in charge, "star" players playing the way they think they need to, largely the same roster, a huge downgrade in the coaching position and a less "toxic" (or alternatively, a less accountable and less critical) atmosphere.

The results thus far seem to be tracking the logic of the situation pretty darn closely.
Yep. And still almost made the playoffs with garbage goaltending

We are going to be 2-3-1 after playing 1 playoff team from last year in the first 6 games. Wait until we play the big boys like Colorado, Dallas, Vegas, LA before saying we can’t do worse than 16th.
Yes but as another poster pointed out, this team always seems to have a knack for winning a bunch of games down the stretch once they're out of playoff contention, moving them out of top 10 pick territory.

Sharpest mind in hockey should have more than 2 cups hey? 945 save % hard to come by to win with that style.

Not the even top two in the province but it is one of the 5 worst contracts in the league.

Same could be said about a number of players.

Flames are the sterilizers of the league.

Sutter smiling collecting his money and keeping the ranch running tip top. He knew these guys were soft. It’s looking more like that every game. Where’s the creativity? Where’s the tenacity? Where’s the push back? Where’s the cap space?

This team is painful to watch. I find myself struggling to really cheer for any of these players. Might be my least favourite flames team in a long time.

What a mess BT made here. So glad that wizard was at the helm for a decade of crap.
