I feel like this is another trap game, so let’s not fall into that trap.
Quote:
Lots of empty seats in Calgary tonight
Quote:
####ty weather/roads, basically worst team in the league, playing an opponent with 3 goals scored in their last 2 lol. I get it. It is striking tho
Edit: also midweek
Quote:
Flames 32/32 in the NHL.
Just win.

awww, the guy that played Shang Tsung died.
Quote:
Oh no Johnny Tsunami! RIP bra
Quote:
That's awful. I can't believe it.
Farewell, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa.
Quote:
Greatest Shang Tsung ever. Rest in peace, Tagawa.
Quote:
I'm so thankful and happy we got to see him play Shang again in MK11 - he stole the show in that game.
Literally the new guy in MK1 made sure to play almost a young version of Cary. That's how essential he is to the character. Basically what Trevor did for Kano.

3 minutes in, why does this feel like a trap game?
League-Sponsored Punching Bag

JFC, they tried to murder Ek just now
Quote:
Ripped the helmet off, another no call
Quote:
Ek is ready to drop the gloves with all of em
Quote:
How many wives of refs has Ek ####ed to get this treatment?
Quote:
Ek still has a pulse. He should know there's no call coming
Quote:
League conspiracy against ek. He didn't even do anything.
Quote:
Do players get a bonus for punching Ek or something?
Quote:
that is egregious that JEE can be crosschecked in the neck, punched so that his helmet pops off, and then punched in the face
all of that AFTER the whistle and apparently all legal
The Prettiest Plays
Quote:
####in shoot that!
Quote:
We’re playing the worst team in the league, we should be shooting at every single look in the PP
Quote:
PP needs to get its sh@# together.
Quote:
Shoot the god damn puck
Quote:
STOP PASSING, ZUC!!!
Quote:
That’s like asking a fish not to swim
Quote:
“I could shoot OR I could pass it through 4 Flames. I know what I’m going to do!”
-Zucc, probably
Quote:
Hey making extra passes directly into traffic has worked really well so far so keep trying that- Hynes coaching this offense
Quote:
He's sponsored by Jack Daniels, he knows about our drinking game so that's what he's gonna do.
Quote:
Spend almost a half period 4 on 5… 0 goals
Quote:
If our PP was working this game would be done
Quote:
Stop with the extra passes
Quote:
The puck is right at your feet.
What even are you Tarasenko? Do you hockey?
Quote:
Get Tarasenko some ayahuasca already
Quote:
Yuh. 4 min PP. Nothing. Let PP2 just dump a soupy corn laden load all over the ice for the first half of it.
Win streak or not, Hynes and his Gorby melanoma still suck.
Quote:
Wild don’t do well against aggressive Pk’s. They don’t know how to move the puck quickly. They like being more methodical?
Quote:
I know one thing. As much as I rip on Foligno, if he was here, he’d of started a fight or something by now to try to get them going…
Quote:
Our PP looks like straight dog####
Quote:
I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH, YOU CANNOT SCORE IF YOU DON'T SHOOT THE PUCK
Quote:
0 goals in 8 minutes of almost continuous PP
Quote:
Well when you always wait for a perfect shot and pass around for 7 minutes and 37 seconds trying to set up that shot, thats gonna happen.
Quote:
LOVE the obligatory faceoff loss and clear to start every power play.
Quote:
This is so pathetic
Quote:
What a pathetic period of hockey. Just limp dick offense beginning to end. Absolute ####ing waste of 8 minutes of powerplay.
Quote:
Disgusting first period. EIGHT minutes 5 on 4 and we didn't score wtf
Hubey Dubey!
Quote:
Was that actually Trenin or a Flame
Quote:
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Quote:
What is happening here.
Quote:
We are playing like the worst ####ing team in the league right now. How many shorthanded attempts do we want to give away to the worst team in the league? They've probably got as many sog as us.
Quote:
what is happening right now
Quote:
They don't have it tonight.
Quote:
Are we just playing to go home? What the #### are we doing?
Quote:
For ####s sake, people saying trap game made it ####ing real
Quote:
I swear I think our strategy has been let other team shell our goalie and also make us look bad.. then after they burned all their energy we take over in the last 30 minutes of the game. I swear it’s a trend with this team
Scoronato with the go-ahead
Quote:
Wf was that defense
Quote:
Craptacular
Quote:
Lovely
Quote:
How does the entire team decide to #### the bed on the same night?
Hope this wakes them up a little
Quote:
We still only have 1 SOG this period?
Quote:
Good to see we continue to play like ass after the goal
Quote:
Hartman on his knees in front of Gus instead of playing a man or the puck.
This isn’t difficult stuff, just basic defensive mistakes
Quote:
Hmmm. I was a little skeptical coming into tonight seeing the Flames were the worst team in the league and the Wild have a sad history of playing down to a weak team’s level. Seems like they’re living up to their history.
Zary Snipes!
Quote:
So we're just going to lose to the worst team in the league huh
Quote:
Not great
Quote:
Man I don't know how they go from playing the most smothering, intense hockey to....whatever they do when playing bottom feeders
Quote:
Scoring one goal against the Flames......argh.......come on, boys. Get mad.
Quote:
We look like hot garbage
Quote:
Okay guys remove head from ass please.
Quote:
Just the laziest ####
Quote:
Damnit! I did a really long blink and they scored twice
Quote:
####ing embarrassing.
Quote:
LaPanta, earlier this game: "The Kaprizov-Ek-Boldy line has outscored the opposition 6-0."
Since then, they've been outscored 2-0.
Jinxes aren't a thing.
Quote:
3 - 1 is the worst lead in sports... right guys right??? Cope? Something... sad
Rasmus 360 no-scopes the empty net
Quote:
did you just do a dump and chase with an empty net down by 2 with less than 90 seconds left? Go #### yourself.
Quote:
Wouldn't have even pulled the goalie with how uninspired they're playing.
Quote:
are they aware they need two goals and not one??
Quote:
6v5 looks just like the PP, not shooting and dumping and chasing. Brilliant
Quote:
Post game write up on this one is going to have to say, 'Sleepwalking in Cow Town.'
Quote:
I want those 15 minutes back. I never should have talked myself into watching the rest. Oh well, maybe losing their streak will light a fire under them. Clearly something needs to.
Quote:
Good night, what a ####ing #### way to end the day
Quote:
Handed 8 minutes of power play time in the opening period right after Colorado looses and we come out with this level of effort and intention. This game feels a lot like October.
Quote:
Rumor has it when Calgary players pee at the urinal they go so high it hits their face.
Quote:
Ugly game from Minny tonight. Hopefully they bounce back against Vancouver.
Quote:
audra martin: "the wild come up short thanks to our HOM Furniture post game report"
yeah #### you HOM furniture, blaming you for this loss
Quote:
When our superstars don’t play like superstars and our defense is flat, this is the result.
Kap and Boldy on the ice for all 4 goals against. 4+ PPs, no goals, and only combined for 5 SOGs. They combined for 5 giveaways and 0 takeaways. The entire MN defenseman also combined for 5 giveaways and 0 takeaways.
Gus at 90% saves played well enough to give us a chance. Hopefully the November Wild shows up Saturday night. Need Yurov back.
Quote:
Playing the perfect game and winning against the best team in the league and then ####ting the bed and losing against the worst team in the league 3 games later. That's the Wild experience. Oh well we can't win them all, don't lose your mind on this and focus on the next game. That will be the perfect time to start a new win streak.

I haven't been on the 'Fire Huska' train too much until now......he's doing too well, he's screwing up their draft position. Might be time to can him and bring in someone else.
Team played well, competed well. Not good for the tank.

The Vancouver Canucks of all teams are now 32nd. A team that consists of Boeser, Pettersson and Hughes. A team with 3 stars to beat us out of a better chance at 1st overall. Then there's Flordia right there as well.
This is going to turn into a Buffalo rebuild if they keep delaying the inevitable.
A huge thing to say right now but the frustration is valid.
In no way is that a stab at Conny, I believe in what he's doing for the organization. The rest of upper managment has me saying otherwise.
We had to watch the Canucks dominate most of the 2010's
Recently watch the Oilers dominate (if you can even call it that) the 2020's.
Last thing this fanbase needs is another divisional rival to have a generational talent.
I understand it's still early in the season but the scare/frustration is there.

Well to be a Buffalo style rebuild you need to pick 1st overall twice and 2nd overall twice. Flames are not there yet.
In the west out of the 10 teams ( including the 2 holding them) chasing the 2 wild card spots, only one team has a winning record in their last 10 games.
Yup west conference is so bad that if they keep this up 2 teams might get in with 87 or 88 pts!
Yikes
Also 3 sure things in life. Taxes, death and Flames winning when scoring 4 or more goals.
42 in a row now… almost 2 full years as last time they lost when scoring 4 was December 12th 2023.

The Flames are tied with Boston and the Rangers with the most games played and have played 2 more games than Vancouver and Nashville. They still have the lowest points percentage in the league.

Buffalo’s issue was never that they didn’t tank hard enough.
And the Canucks and Oilers haven’t dominated anything. The Canucks got out of round 2 once in the 2010s and were out of the POs 5 years out of that decade. The Oilers have had two runs which were smoke and mirrors, and have been pretty mediocre in the regular season, usually lower middle of PO teams.
Make the playoffs : 105 point pace the rest of the way.
To NOT draft in the top 10 : 96 point pace the rest of the way.
To NOT draft in the top 5 : 87 point pace the rest of the way.

But the Flames were a 96 point team last year with a lot going right. The sell off of some assets should pretty much nuke the chances of not drafting in the top ten.
And that's at least.
I could see a big skid when Andersson is dealt.

Some people need to relax a little. Flames are still, by points %, the worst team in the league, even after their current hot streak. They've luckily banked a lot of losses earlier in the season to shield themselves from finishing in the mushy middle.
I expect as other teams start ramping up the second 20 game set, we'll see Flames get those coveted losses. They had to play above their heads just to be barely over .500 over the last stretch of games.
