All the top 4 defencemen are having a rough go of it tonight.

Come on it would be awesome. We are always bad and boring. If we lost 5-4 every game well hey bring it on.

They have got worse the last three years. I love Gio but him and Brodie have not improved the defense like they needed and the secondary forwards they have added did nothing.

Can’t remember if it was possible or the same summer but adding Pietrangelo or a guy like him would have been so much better than Tavares.

Since he is technically on a recall, I wonder if the Flames are still contractually obligated by the CBA to put him up in a hotel in Calgary and pay him a per diem?

He has not helped, he is letting in the high danger shots and is NOT evoking confidence.

Turnovers are the bigger issue though.

If Dustin Wolf wants an NHL job it's there for him to take starting tomorrow

I tend to agree, as other guys like Hanifin and Lindholm can get more, but I wouldn't necessarily say no, depending on the price other teams are willing to pay. I don't believe in dealing everyone away, as it's hard to rebuild with compete with skinny young kids, but people who can bring back value and are playing at their peak should be looked to get value from.

Leafs got a case of Edmonton-itis thinking loading up on offense would compensate for everything else.

Never emulate the oilers.

Back-to-back third period comebacks. Calling it.

One thing about the Leafs is when they're playing with the lead and it's a close game, they're always holding on for the win in OT. I would almost put money on it that the Flames tie it up and the Leafs win in OT.

Honest our top 4D is other team’s second pairing the most.

Tanev is dropping off a cliff. Always late to the puck. Hanafin , a hit and miss.

Maybe he can be our Dougie Weight and be traded at the deadline and just come back in the offseason and sign here.

I want to see a photo of Vernon meeting Wolf. Then, people could stop complaining about Wolf being too short.

Once again the Flames will be shocked by the revelation (like they were with Zary, Pospisil etc) that the solutions were under their noses the whole time.

But I'm not going to underestimate their potential to turn around and put a tweaked markstrom in tomorrow because points.

Lindholm wants $9 million per year. That’s if Tre is Saltillo the GM in Calgary

Wolf has to earn it when he gets the chance, hopefully he takes full advantage

If Wolf can be decent this team could be scary.
