[N-E-B]

I'm so angry right now. My night is ruined.

[Flash Walken]

Worst game from Hamilton in a flames uniform.

Hamilton has become and incredibly lazy hockey player. Someone let the guy know he's an NHL player not in a beer league just for the hell of it.

Secondly,this wasn’t an issue last year. So is this just an excuse? Tightly wound excuse from the coach could mean “don’t agree with the gameplan” or any other number of reasons from the players as to why the players aren’t comfortable supposedly in big games.

This was already said by many others. BT gave up all his draft picks to go all in this year and next and there is not a snowballs chance in hell that GG is the guy to get the job done.

I'm beginning to wonder if the players tuning out the Coaches

Backlund/Monahan
Brodie-Gio as a checking trio

And then once possession is acquired he would switch to some variant along the lines of Monahan-Gaudreau-Hamilton



JMO but that six man unit was way more dangerous. The "results" haven't changed but we haven't looked as good in OT since Gulutzan forced his 2F-1D onto the team.

[Bend it like Bourgeois]

If your biggest rival is no good and hands you your ass every time you play? Well, you aren’t very good.

[Jeff Lebowski]

EDM deserves credit. They could see CGY was in their own way and despite missing key guys took advantage.

Somewhere Bob Hartley is smiling knowing he wasn't the porblem.

[meh]

Dear Mr. Ken King,
Ok..ok.. I give!
We need a new rink! It's obvious now.

I don't know, Hartley is probably still pissed that Treliving gets GG new goalies every season and he got stuck with tank commander Hiller and Ramo.

The Oilers are terrible I give them no credit. Zero. Flames play like they are capable of and we smoke them even if Smith lets in a couple questionable goals.

I don't know why people think this way - draft picks this year and next do not produce results for this current group - so we are not 'all in this year or next' -

For sure we are ''all in' with this group - but there is plenty of time for them to produce a championship beyond this year or next

This team is lacking "Always earned, never given"

Travis Hamonic.

I partly agree with you, but this group will not produce a championship with this coaching staff.

Thank God the Canadiens ####ed the Red Wings tonight to distract everyone from the #### show that is the Calgary Flames

[meh]

Why on earth is Brouwer still on this team?
For the love of Pete! Why!??
