I guess we're gonna have to call up Jankowski because HF is telling me Bennett, Tkachuk, and Chaisson are all getting suspended.

HE may have had no sustainable system, but at least he could inspire his players to work hard and play what turned out to be pretty exciting hockey. Can't be too unhappy with that.

Pond hockey is better than watching the Flames right now.

No penalty for that after all.
It was clean, let's not be like HF.

He tries a couple of times before getting the spot he wants. He has a name for that already. Kid better watch out you can't got around blatantly trying to injure players.
Off topic, but can somebody tell me why this particular account has blown up on the hockey twitterverse? Many other people provide much higher quality gifs. So odd to me.

Can barely see #### in her gifs.

sure beginning to look like it now...

really disappointed; during the winning streak, i thought the players might have actually bought into the system...

so either they haven't or the system is so basic, like someone mentioned above, that other teams have figured it out.

either alternative doesn't bode well for us.

I hope for ownership's sake the wait list is long.

But go ahead raise ticket prices anyway.
Is there a wait list any more? Lots of unsold seats every night.

Default Flames Suck In TO

I just don't get some of the decisions Gulutzan is married to:

Brodie looks like a top 10 defenseman when on the right side. Better force him to play his "correct" side, despite ample evidence that his play has cratered on that side.

Chaisson will not be demoted below the top 6. Now he's not terrible he's just not even close to a top 6 player. I'm sure most of us would be fine if he was an everyday player but on the 3rd or 4th line. The guys has zero finish. At least give Ferland another shot up there.

He also has very puzzling uses with his challenges and when pulling the goalie. Has he even had a successful challenge all year?

He may be a great X's and O's guy but then he should be an assistant. The head coach needs to be a guy that demands respect and can motivate his players. Not this pushover.

I also hope we get destroyed tomorrow.

Because if we don't, we'll all mostly forget this and the glimmer of false-hope comes back.

This team is not good and something needs to change.

If they crap their way through the rest of the trip let Dave Cameron be an interim until a proven coach becomes available. At least his PP allows the offensive players on this team to play to their abilities.

5 on 5 they're neutered and playing scared.

She gets her gifs out really fast and they are really good quality. The gif I posted is crystal clear.

Just got home from the game and the biggest thing I noticed sitting 8 rows off the ice was the lack of intensity and fire by most of this team, I'm glad I wasn't the only one who noticed this.

Giordano is such a waste of space, Monahan is beyond horrible, Brouwer was a complete no show, I just can't believe how little they seemed to care. Win or lose the effort needs to be there and it all starts with the coach and the captain.

Unfortunately they announced the 50/50 number with a minute left in the game so I was forced to stay, and I didn't win that either. A horrible night all around.

0/5 in Toronto when I attend.

Yes, because every Leafs fan means every hockey fan.

There's no denying the principal point of contact was the head. I don't think Komarov meant to do that and I believe it was more a product of the height difference but a headshot is a headshot and if the same thing happened to a Leaf you'd be screaming bloody murder.

Thanks for your two cents though.

Flames are 4 penalties away from eclipsing their total times short handed from two seasons ago when they made the playoffs. I don't get how such a soft team racks up so many penalties. Wouldn't surprise me if the league suspends Tkachuk since it seems like they've been on the Flames since the Wideman incident. I have a hard time watching the games lately and the calls and lack of calls has been a huge part of it.
