Andersson may be unhappy. Certainly players who want to win must (and should) be unhappy. I just don't think they'd air their dirty laundry about each other. That's the part I have trouble with.

That's not being positive or negative.

Lol they pitch forked Wolf into the net...like the stick flexed

Only able to watch bits and pieces, listening on 960 as well. Hillbilly Missouri fans seem to be booing Kadri? Something this game, or history?

Pachal knocks it in, and Wolf was down/out before it. The contact pushing wolf in comes late.

If by “certain type of Flames fan” you mean a lifelong fan who held season tickets for 10 years and has multiple years of attending 40+ games?

Yeah what a scumbag fan.

Farabee is the new meat hands Marchant.

History going back to the playoffs when Kadri was with Colorado.

Ill advised back pass - Coronato?

STH from 1996-2013 until I left town for work myself.

In the NHL you cannot move the goalie out of the way by pitchforking him into the net, thus preventing him from making the save. Those are just the rules for better or worse.

It was a sellers market which is why I was mad we didn't make a move to sell at the time.

We have no idea whether he blocked any proposed trades at that time.

It’s a number of things combined, all feeding off each other.
Just not a fun place to be, which I think we all know is the case during seasons like this so that’s not anything special news wise.

It’s only gotten worse, more than I think they imagined.
Bad play is one thing.
Bad attitudes spread like wildfire.
Huge divide in the room, not even sure how you fix it at this point.

No, you didn't say anything. Nor did you elaborate, just imply that the culture has been broken before the start of the season, likely because Andersson wasn't traded in the offseason.

Then you doubled down by saying:

I’m guessing no.

That implies even more that it's Andersson. Since, I doubt it describes Kadri, Huberdeau, Weegar, Coleman, or Backlund.

Not trying to call you out, but you can see why I was a bit confused by what you meant, and came to the conclusion that it's all on Andersson.

[Royle9]

I honestly didnt see a pitchfork that pushed him in.
I saw Pachals stick knock it in.

Maybe I’m wrong, I’ll rewind and watch after.

You are a fine fan its just a terrible take...its not like they are scared of the Flames PP if it was even close they would have challenged. There was zero chance of reversing that one

Why try and snipe other fans? It’s also not like it’s a secret I’m pro-tank.

When I saw it, it seemed the contact with Wolf and the big push came late into the play when the puck was already on the way in, I don’t think the push caused the goal/prevented Wolf from stopping it.

I think the push was largely just an idiotic play by the Blues player that cost his team a goal.

Especially since pushing him enough to flex his own stick moved Wolf enough for the puck to come loose and slide in the net off Pachal.

It was just a work analogy, not a verbatim 1 to 1 comparison.
My bad for the confusion.

But they knew the Rasmus situation was going to be a distraction.
Craig tried to play it off being asked about it directly.
The media knew he blocked a trade + extension.
The media knew he wasn’t happy in Calgary.

So much so that literally the day of the annual golf tournament kick off the Flames chose to release the news of the Wolf extension to purposely take away from any media pressure from Rasmus. (Smart move btw)

[ComixZone]

First time I noticed Sharangovich…and he takes the puck to the wall and gets buried.

[dino7c]

"It was probably going in anyway" is irrelevant...ask Coleman

Here's a story about it: https://ca.sports.yahoo.com/news/naz...223924243.html

If there's any truth to the rumour that he has some "red state" teams on his no-trade list and would rather stay in Canada, this is probably a big reason for it too.
