For the pleasure of paying 15 million a year for multiple years for 3 players that best case are post apex when we’re contending

But hey I guess pointing this out makes me a troll !
No, it doesn't make you a troll. You were likely born that way.

Can't be true. Huska's system is brilliant.

Whenever the Flames tried winning games by exchanging chances, they ended up losing a lot more than they won.

If they're going to lose anyway, then I don't mind giving it a try.

By ton he meant none right? It's the worst system I have ever seen an NHL coach deploy in my 43 years of watching hockey. It's just nothing. There is no creativity in the offensive zone, there is not forwards hanging back to be a team that focuses on defence. It's just fn nothing. I know Huska is not telling them to go out there and do nothing but damned if I can figure it out wtf he is trying to accomplish. His lines and bench management is brutal. Two more years after this. Joy.

You don’t need to bring receipts when you are full of ####.

There's zero chance a rookie out of junior said that about the coaching.

It was probably something like "you have to be more defensively aware at the NHL level".

Any of us think NYI is babying Schaefer?

Talk about over-coaching Zayne.
