You need to play guys so they can shake off the rust.

Everyone seems a bit off.

Hopefully they'll bounce back here in the third.
I think this is the first time I ever heard the Leafs compared to a dead-puck era team. Yeah..I wish..I could go for some stability. The Leafs hook and hold as much as any other team.

I'm not saying it's time to panic, not at all. All I'm saying is there has been games we've won where we haven't played our best and now those are catching up to us a little bit. Still have total faith that the coaching staff and players find a way to pick their game up, but you can't deny we have had trouble playing a full 60 minutes.

I guess...

I just wish that players could go out and skate and try to work the rust off in some sort of non-game situation...

The worst period all year and we were outscored by 1 on a powerplay goal.

I wish that players would be sent on conditioning stints for a game or two prior to coming back when they've been out that long.

Canadiens suck though. People should be counting them out. Without Price that is a subpar team. Definitely not a cup contender.

It doesn't work when anyone says it because superstitions aren't real, but it's especially silly when fans of the team being shutout say it, imo.

Fair enough.

Although we lost the San Jose game, I actually thought it was a good effort save for one minute at the end of the first and five at the beginning of the second.

There have certainly been a few games where the Flames have looked 'off' but I wouldn't say there have been more recently than the beginning of the season - our goaltending bailed us out a lot at the beginning of the year and we won games we shouldn't have then too.

What team is a cup contender without their best player?

Remove Kessel from your Leafs and im sure they would also be a worse team
