No offence being generated, turnovers galore.

Forwards completely disconnected from the D.

At least we have good goalies

Doesn’t really matter until they get an actual #1C. I’ll take the wins when they get them though. I still think they will be pretty sparse this season even with the hot start.

About to say the same thing. Both have been pretty great so far. Pleasant surprise, to put it mildly. I was expecting a lot worse.

Turning Vladar into a 2nd+, and promoting Cooley only for him and Wolf to run the show just as well is going to be a massive “W” for Connie.

The strong offence we saw for the first 5 games is basically gone. I really thought Johnathan Huberdeau was off to a good start, but I’m starting to wonder if it was a one off thing.

Wait, that wasn't a penalty? Backlund was mugged. Jeez.

[Macindoc]

Pretty obvious hold

[Rejean31]

This team started looking crappy the minute that Rooney was inserted back into the lineup.

[HighLifeMan]

Yeessh. Take Hanley and Rooney out if the lineup.

[Manhattanboy]

Who needs shots on goal anyway. Aiden Hill having a long nap.

That 4 or 5 day break or whatever it was really hurt them after a hot start. That came at a terrible time.

[Nelson]

Is this the start of the line blender? I’d support that.

[Rejean31]

On pace for 12 shots this game. Think we're getting shut out tonight.

[PuckSlap]

I’m still not upset with where we are. This was expected. I guess I’m a bit frustrated with a few of the players who should be leading by example.

[JurassicTunga12]

gotta shoot to score

[TenaciousC]

We can’t even enter the zone. One guy tries to carry it in w/ no support and turn over at the blue line about 15 times this period

[Eb0la11]

Why is Rooney even on the team and Coronato down? What has Roo why ever done in his time with the Flames other than get injured?

[Manhattanboy]

We seem to get opposite odd man rushes. 1 on 2. 2 on 3.

Opposing teams adjusted by pulling a forward behind our forwards in the neutral zone and it's breaking up our outlets. Our response has been to throw some career AHL players in Rooney, Hanley and Kirkland into he lineup.
