Great hopes for this team.

One goalie and a junior on D who’s never played an NHL game.

But sure Flames raise my season tix prices 8%.

I just took my rose colored glasses off.

I put then back on really quickly.

Yikes. Think this is the beginning of the end.

Zero efforts and a talent deficit. Baaaaaaad combo.

That offside review broke the team. They were hanging in there beforehand.

That’s not the way the trade market works. If no team was willing to pay Conroy’s price for Andersson it’s because the market didn’t think he was worth that much.

Carlo returned a 1st and a decent B prospect. I have to think if Conroy genuinely had Andersson on the market, he could have got the same return.

They just don't have enough talent and the roster decisions at forward with Zary and Backlund out haven't helped things.

Hunt and Klapka maybe aren't the problem but they certainly aren't a solution.

Not playing younger players here so frustrating for a team in this position. Kerins and Stromgren should have been in.

Yeah, this sucks but they are still in it until they use up the games in hand.

They will probably bounce back from this stinker.

Buffalo has a better goal differential than Calgary.

This might be an all time bad team. Wolf deserves the Hart just for having us not positioned in last place.

Unfortunately keeping losing games is the way to keep the fans' hopes high for the future. This version of Flames is so lame. Glad that I do not have Amazon Prime.
