I think Gio’s shot was aimed as a pass to Gaudreau

Flames fans:
Pretty sure a majority of us were not saying such things after the two games vs the Leafs. Most of us acknowledged that goaltending was almost the sole reason for the 3 points.

Thing is I don’t give Ward a pass for what happened before November 29th.

Coming into 2019-2020 season the Coaching staff, which included Ward decided they wanted to play a heavier, more defensive system they they thought would work better in the playoffs.

After Peters was fired they kept playing that system, and Ward went one step further moving to an even more passive, collapse defense in the defensive zone.

It hasnt worked at all in that time, even considering a bit of a bump record wise after Peters was fired.

Outside of the little post coach blip where they went on a win streak the team has been a .500 team playing this style. It just doesn’t work with this roster, and that’s with getting the 6th best goaltending on the entire NHL in that time.

I think at this point any Flame that goes to the slot or net front gets chewed out by the coaching staff when they get back to the bench

Rick Ball is going to start sounding like Bob Eucker at the beginning of major league soon.

At this point, Tre should have no say in the firing or hiring of any coach.

Nah, Burke said apparently he was just getting too mean and nasty near the end. Like he would be giving it to guys right on the plane after a tough loss.

Ottawa works their ass off. Don't know why anyone is surprised a team without a pulse is struggling with them.

Ottawa is a bad hockey team.


Calgary is worse.

Everyone other than Trelieving and a few posters on this board can see how terrible a job Ward is doing. What's funny is his supporters don't even bother trying to point out the good things he is doing, I guess because there are so few.

The "defend Geoff Ward Camp" consists entirely of people saying this core sucks or the team is mentally fragile.
