Has anyone on the team had a scoring chance?

As fans, this is not the time to turn on young players learning how to play at the NHL level.

There's zero point in signaling out individual players right now, because the team as a whole has been terrible. The whole team is failing to get scoring chances. The whole team is blowing plays, giving the puck away, making brain dead plays.

They're lost. This team is lost, and no one person is to blame for it all, and no one person is exempt from being blamed. The fact that so many players are playing so poorly is concerning, and has to have Treliving absolutely terrified at this moment.

Treliving is showing really poor judgement with his hire of Dallas Gulutzan. No structure, no flow, no passion.

Brouwer was saying it's never that hard to adjust to new coaching styles (they're all pretty similar).

This Flames team has zippo confidence. Players thinking too much and not knowing what to do.

What a great effin system by Gluttony.

Have the puck in offensive zone:
No one help the puck carrier or try to get open. Dman jumps in for no reason and no one cover his spot.

Opposition has the puck in your offensive zone:
Everyone crash the net, leaving the point and wingers free to pass anywhere they like and get deflections.

PP:
Let's keep trying the same thing even though the other team has figured out not to let you carry it in because why the hell not? To quote Gluttony "you're doing the same ****ing thing in games"

So freakin frustrating to watch this team. From the body language seems like the players have given up already.

Just yesterday I said that the team will figure it out by game 10, and I still kind of do, but watching them live right now, it's so hard to be optimistic.

How can they all look so ####ing confused all the time?

No compete, no leadership, no identity, no creativity, no chance.
Would be nice to see our "best" players take there thumbs outta their youknowwhats and give some effort.
This Is Embarrassing.

The Flames definition of a breakout pass is blindly throwing the puck up the boards. Haven't seen one crisp breakout pass.

I am guessing BT was going for indecisive, slow and soft when he was building this team?

I haven't jumped on the "blame gulutzan" bandwagon yet but this is terrible hockey. Only so long you can blame rustiness and the process.

Can't you imagine paying $100 plus food; plus parking, plus being irate leaving the game. Just to watch Glenn's passion less coaching which has already rubbed off on the players.
