The only problem is that teams still play their backups against us (Pens, Blue Jackets, Red Wings). If they played the Zamboni driver we might win this game 8-7 with our scoring and goaltending.

Labarbera was a terrible 'tender when he played. I've always wondered why the Flames thought he was qualified enough to be giving full-time advice to their own 'tenders.

Whoever thought 10-91-29 is a good line combo needs to rethink that one for sure.

Really Kadri and Dube shouldn't play together ever, always a tire fire

True, but he's let in untimely, bad-angle shots and that's sapped any energy they might have been able to muster.

If a team took him off the Flames hands would that be a bad thing?

Woof. These guys are so bad. The maddening thing is that they are up against the cap. The wizard treliving.

Now I know why we didn’t move anyone last year down the stretch. It was him ensuring our situation would be worse for years to come.

Sure looks like a team sucky loss to me. No one gets a pass from me. Good thing I did laundry so the afternoon isn't a complete loss.

Lets hope Hubredeau gets a point on a meaningless 3rd goal so we can use him being at a PPG as an excuse for his #### play.

as I said in the pre-season, I'm having very little patience for #### goaltending with Wolf in the minors

Huberdeau now sitting at 4 points (2 goals off skates, an assist off an empty net post, and a secondary assist), 11 whole shots, and a -6 through 5.75 games.

Can't get more pathetic

How many successful goalies under those sieves?

Every goalie degrades under Sigalet.

Don't forget: Maloney is still here and believes this a well constructed team.

Coach isn't much better either. So far, nothing about this team has impressed me. Including the new captain, Backlund.
