[GT] Heritage Classic: Flames vs Oilers

[dino7c]

SN is really something else

[CF84]

The Flames had such a fun time playing dress-up today that they forgot that wasn't the only play-time they had today.

Y’all just know the Oilers are going to go on a heater after this win too lmao.

This is the way.

[Vedder]

Lots of potential for the fan base to go full late 90’s apathetic at this point. Could get very ugly before there is hope for this franchise again. Don’t envy Conroy’s position.

It would be better if they just locked him out of the dressing room and talked about how they want to generate offence.

Masochism, mostly.

That would be hilarious. Pay Sutter double just for good measure.

My biggest fear has come true with a rookie coach. Team hasn't came to play in the first period very often. Dont forget, without historically bad goaltending we are easily in the playoffs last year. Toffoli loss really hurts.

[MonaTone]

Wtf, honour the heritage classic by looking back at a different outdoor game?

That sounds like jumping the shark.

His pre-game pump up sounded like this:

“Skate fast, skate faster than they do”

Oh okay coach, got it.. that’ll do.
Negative faith in this team.

[TrentCrimmIndependent]

Pete Peters looks exactly how I imagined.

Now we have to suffer through 20 of tonguing of Oiler anus in the intermission.

He can't. They will get him fired.

Ah I remember why I haven’t given much of a #### lately.

I would say last season proved moreso that he is a HOF coach.

Again, with just average goaltending (not good or great), Flames likely would've gotten 6 more wins, that would've been 105 points. Would that have been enough to win the division? Can't remember.

But with the apparent toxicity he provided, it was assumed (wrongly) that the team would perform better. The opposite has occurred actually. Sutter made more out of this team than what they are.

I’m so glad I’m stuck at work and unable to watch this train wreck.

Cup parade back on for Edmonton. Flames should be embarrassed.

[dino7c]

What even is this lol

At this rate that is the best possible outcome for him.

Good! There might be hope for this season after all.
