It has been a crime to be negative on this board.
Yeah people got mad when you came into a GT 5 mins into a game to say the game was over and laughed at you when the Flames pulled it out. It's a game it supposed to be fun. Fan, its short for fanatic

congrats on calling the Flames a bottom 5 team for a decade and finally being correct (maybe)

Others on this board know way more about hockey than I do, and I'm happy to listen.

Many times there are opinions not grounded in fact and I call that out for what it is.

I sure as #### don't try to settle internet scores with posters over comments said 1-3 seasons ago, but you do you. You complain about "wall of shame", but you're doing the same thing in reverse. How's that for irony?

Evander Kane summed up the Flames.

“What is anyone here going to do?”

The answer is nothing

Edmonton helping Kane out of his crater of debt when the rest of the league saw a guy that earned his situation is borderline unforgivable.

Are you and I posting on the same forum? CP isn’t negative?

Granted, I find the general vibe mirrors our record. I also don’t understand why anyone would not only follow the team but continue to post on a flames fan forum if they hate the team.

I don’t need to get in back and forths with everyone. There’s a reason certain ppl are getting defensive.

End of the day, my point is myself and many others got lambasted over the years for being negative.

Wall of shame was for people who quit on a Flames game during that nights game thread that they ended up winning...most were happy to end up there considering they were Flames fans and the Flames won.

If we are going back years we will have pages of "shame on everyone" here

The draft treads are 90% shame in hindsight

You can hate the team and love the franchise.

That’s where I’m at

Even if Sutter would have stayed the players that he'd have success with would want out, and then you're stuck in a spot where you can't bottom out with him as coach and aren't going to have the talent to win.

At least now they might bottom out.
The guys we all wish would leave threatened that they would leave?

back on topic I think the Flames need to employ the all out attack...if you are gonna lose anyway lets pump up the point totals for trade value

I mean if people were fooled into think EK deserved the Norris playing rover for SJ trying to lose anything can happen

1) you probably don't need the quotations around the word 'right' :P

2) I think the whole situation is super comical. Its full of irony, willful blindness and delusion within the front office and the dressing room. And just watching the wheels come off like this - so hard and so quickly - is absolutely hilarious. Sad for us as fans. But also I'm literally dying from how funny this is lmao. And every time I post about Sutter or Huby or Kadri, I'm literally dying lmao. But if it's making the board toxic and upsetting some posters who aren't ready to make light of the situation, I can stop for a while. It wasn't my intent.

Apologies.

Love Gullyfoss

I thought if they had some major bounce backs to career norms they could be a playoff team, even divisional playoff team

shame away

oddly enough the goaltending does seem to be back but if you can't score you can't win

So it's ok for everyone to continually bitch over and over about the same players they don't like but the coach is out of bounds? F that, if people can continually bitch about Huberdeau and Kadri over and over I can bitch about our useless coach too.

Instead of rebuilding after Gaudreau and Tkachuk, we screw our salary cap for the next 7 years with 2 players past their prime, it's going to be a long painful season

Had fun at the game. Great atmosphere and a big crowd. Nice to see so many fellow Flames fans! The weather was decent and Rural Alberta Advantage were great!

Obviously not much needs to be said about the game. What really stood out to me was how gutless and soft the Flames are. The Oilers pushed them around all night. Kane in particular was nailing our d-men on the forecheck and no one did anything. We are butter soft.

I hope the losing and negativity isn’t going to wreck our few good prospects. Should we send Coronado to the Wranglers just to get into a more positive environment? Can’t be a great dressing room to be in right now.
