He's calling the game for radio. You have to paint a bit more of the picture when doing so.

Gridin seems to just have that 'it' factor, right spot right reads.

Just boggles my mind how you cheer for a team you hold in such low regard

Six players from last year's opening-night roster are not on the roster now. Of the players who were on the team in the 2022 playoffs, only three are still in the organization.

Yup, nothing changes. Different GM, different coach, an almost entirely different roster… but it's exactly the same team, presumably because the organization is too stupid to ever change personnel in any way.

Lmao, it's a joke man. Don't take life so seriously!

I think a lot of us were thinking "this is typical Flames", when they blew the 4-1 lead.

How many times did they blow 3 goal leads last year?
I’ll help. The flames had the 19th most blown leads last year. Meaning 18 teams had more.

The typical flames stuff is old and lazy

I really only watched the second half of the game, but I don't remember seeing us win a single faceoff on the PP. It's great that Coronato is winning draws, maybe we should have him start taking the important ones too.

I don't know if it is a generational thing or something, but some people take posts way too seriously. Not everything someone posts is a personal shot at you.

The guy was making a joke, and I laughed. It was funny.

For what it may be worth:

I didn't laugh. I didn't find it funny; things I've heard before a thousand times very seldom are. Quoting mediocre lyrics from ancient bands, as a way to back up a statement about hockey, just struck me as bizarre and pointless. And the poster himself never said it was a joke; maybe he should be the one making that defence, rather than having someone else mind-read his intentions.

Until Treliving gets off his butt and gets rid of some of Lindholm, Toffoli, Mangiapane, Greer, Rooney, Kuzmenko, Pelletier, Hanifin, Zadorov, Tanev, Markstrom and Vladar this team is going nowhere.

Where did I suggest it was a personal shot at me?
