Feel bad for the fans who paid food money to watch this dog dung of a game. Boring with a capital B. 1st line is really fighting it right now. I think separating them for the next while could be good for them. Monahan should be playing less right now, lately when he’s been out there, bad passes or turnovers happen and for $6M, he needs to be better at the little things or give us at least some wow moments for that kind of dough.

Short passes and limited passing options are a systemic issue that has been well-scouted pre-game, resulting in incomplete plays.

Playing ANY system with most players playing at 60– 70 percent effort generally nullifies the system and any opportunity to win.

No team can look so anemic for 60 minutes like the Flames.

What do you want to bet they play great the last 10 minutes manage to get one but can’t tie it up despite great pressure? Another “almost had it” game where they played like crap for 50/60 minutes.

I don't buy that. Short passes and limited passing options can be solved pretty quickly by moving ones feet on the breakout.

Just getting absolutely dummied by the 4th line. It would be awesome if the flames looked even remotely interested in battling for the puck.

Trade GG for Kane, he'd probably be able to score.

So frustrated with this team lol. When a team is this inconsistent you know the season is going nowhere. They won't have a chance to win or go deep if you never know which team will show up.

This is where the coach shows if he has a brain. Smith needs to be pulled, give him some rest.
