[GT] Heritage Classic: Flames vs Oilers

[Icon]

Good, throw some fists, act like you give a damn

[MonaTone]

Calgary flames hockey at this point is just a front for oil and gas propaganda...which kinda fits tbh.

[Royle9]

If they won’t show up for this game, the team is toast.
Man do they look so uninterested, 3/4 of the team is invisible.

This game should be the blow it up moment, gonna be 4-1 here

Seeing woodcock yelling was funny but he was certainly more fired up than Huska

Huska came off like a minors coach

"Alright guysss let's play faster, kayyy?"

And yet one team is playing like they want it, while the other is playing like they don't give a flying #$%&. Honestly, as a fan it's not surprising at all to see attendance plummeting at the dome.

With the current hard times and the garbage product on the ice, people are over it and prioritizing their money elsewhere.

He likely had to go to the bargain bin since they're still paying Darryl $8 million. Not to say he couldn't have tried a different or better cheap, young coach.

[dino7c]

Dive but they were due

[81MC]

….so not worth sneaking out after child’s in bed to catch the third,
?

Here comes the pee pee.

It's not like they all have to go to the same team. If we can't get Arizona to take ONE bad contract, then honestly what are we even doing?

[Mass_nerder]

What a dumb penalty.
Like soft as hell, but you have to know the refs are going to be looking for any reason to call something.

Lol no one is touching Kadri or Huberdeau

[TrentCrimmIndependent]

Bless him for that hit on Urine, worth the call.

[renny]

We keep turning the puck over all over the ice. It's insane.

Weegar comes out and makes a patient heads-up play and gets us a much needed goal.

I wish they would stop the experiment and realize Hanifin’s strengths and weaknesses and play him to them.

Strengths - tradeable!

[Flames Fan, Ph.D.]

This team looks like it needs an old school bench clearing brawl to empty all of its anger and frustration.

[Domoic]

Oh Coleman IS playing...

I think the point is it would be addition by subtraction

Did they have a worse stretch and such little hope in Atlanta?

Because I don’t remember feeling like this at any time from October 1980 to date.

I agree with this. And there is a reason.

It’s that its going to be this way for at least the next five years. More likely 7 or 8.

It would be one thing if they were door mats, but we could make trades, or have buyouts. But we are 100% “locked in” for the better part of the next decade. 17 million per season and no movement clause, and a guy who quits.

My elementary aged kid will be graduating high school before this team even has hope again.

Its brutal.

There is a reason they started playing indoors

Like you’re not wrong the ice is #### I’m just saying it’s fair because both teams have to deal with it.
