No they don't. They are playing very inconsistent hockey right now, not only overall but period by period. I get that people like it better with the youth but this team is showing zero signs of competing for anything, now or in the future.

I've ignored someone for the first time, and I sorta wish it would make even their posts disappear, not just the content. Great third and win!

They showed exceptional compete level tonight, after being down 2 goals going into the third period, against a top tier team.
Flames have points in 8 of the last 10 games.

Give your head a shake.

You either need a bump or a good nights rest, I’m leaning towards the former for my own entertainment lol

Good individual games are nowhere close to showing they can compete for the Cup. This season, in both wins and losses, they have shown they are nowhere near that level.

If I had delusional expectations that my team would be a top challenger for the cup every year I'd be an Oilers fan.

As usual you're just looking for something to complain about, if you don't think they look better than the team that played last year right now then I don't know what you were watching. Last year once they were down 2-1 that game would have been over.

I don't think anyone is saying they will compete for the cup, but if they keep playing like this I won't complain.

This a pretty bold statement from you. Are you sure you are not an oilers fan. Would be a very oilers thing to do to hang out on a Flames message board pretending to be somebody you're not. Can't see it unless you are a kid with nothing better to do. oilers with 2 high draft picks are showing less than our inconstant rookies.

Who said competing for the Cup every year? I said building towards that.

And I am not complaining about anything. I said I don't think they look better than they do last season, in large part because I don't expect them to be able to make majors changes in such a short time, countering your made up statement that I expect to compete for Cups every year.

It is so pathetic that when someone has a different opinion than you to go down the BS "must be an Oiler fan" route. But not really surprising as many people have shown unless you are 100% homer they can't handle it.

You didn't answer my question, are you sure your not an oilers fan. Most on this board know I am big on encouraging different opinions, but you are acting very much like an oilers fan. Fess up, come on.

Doubling down on the pathetic behaviour? That is an odd choice but I guess you will do whatever you have to do rather than just accept reality.

You still never answered my question. Like you, about those Flames I am just expressing an opinion. You sound a lot like an oiler fan. And well the reality is, the oilers are not very good right now and our rookies who you said are inconsistent are difference makers on the Flames. Meanwhile the oilers 2 top draft picks are not very good. If you are an oilers fan wouldn't it be better to admit it and just come out, and offer us your insights rather than hide behind a fake identity? Because like I said before, that is something kids might do for fun. I'm just offering at different opinion but you still haven't answered my question.

I said the team was inconsistent not just the rookies, but not surprisingly yes some of the rookies have been inconsistent.

This whole Oiler fans route you are going down is just silly, tripling down on it now is as I said pathetic.

I think you can defend the specifics of most of which you said.

But a guy screaming for a rebuild and how the team has no chance at a cup, and they're inconsistent, etc etc after a fun win gets a little old.

People just tire of it.

Can't believe you don't see that.

I didn't say any of that until I was called out for no reason in the thread and only posted in reply to people continually calling it out. Also I never posted anything close to what could be considered "negative" even by the very light standards of negativity that many have here. And it was never close to screaming about it either, not sure the need for the hyperbole there.

The idea that people shouldn't respond to others calling out and lying about their opinions is silly to me but every one will use message boards their own way.

its funny that many of the people that claim they "tire of it" are the ones bringing things up for no reason.

Sorry man the act is getting old nobody buys that.

"not competing for anything"
"4 meh rookies"

Who in their right mind thinks that's the way to make friends after a fun come from behind win?

You can play victim until the cows come home. You can even convince yourself you're doing a great job arguing your case. But most of us just see through it and always will.
