Of course not, but this is not a good trend of late. A lot of it has to do with the play of the top 5 players on this team. Gaudreau, Monahan, and Tkachuk have been pretty absent of late.

Ridiculous amount of panic on this thread. We are 3-1 down to the best team in the league. One of those came from a bad change. We had our chances too and we are still in it. Game on.

It's far from lost. Despite it being 3-1, the lightning have been complaining for almost a full period with most of the calls.

Think he got the penalty for being the second guy in.

Every team goes through it...Flames should have had a blowout win last game and dominated large stretches against SJ

Little early to panic and give up on the season...not you, CP in general

Holy, did Gio lose a couple teeth recently as well?

When did that happen?

Don't be obtuse, you know what I meant.

Again, I'm just surprised they made the appropriate call when they virtually make a coincidental call as often as they do a single.

I agree, but my response was directed to counter this:

Thing I'm most curious about the rest of this game is seeing how the top 2 lines respond. Can't rely on the bottom 6 to carry the team, the top 6 need a few good shifts to get the team back in it........Chucky especially needs to find his mojo.

Feels like our only good defensemen in that period were Hanifin and Kylington. Not gonna win many when your three best defensemen aren't making their mark.

Still think this team needs one more good player up front. Kreider, Stone, Zuccarello, Staal, whoever. They need a jumpstart.

Bennett should be going after Point. The Flames should take this to the trenches. Tampa is full of whiners.

Not really, its sounds like you are talking about two players

They have an extra player in the scrum...just let it go, right call was made and it was pretty obvious not some kinda gift

I hated that turnover that led to their 2nd goal. Hamonic tried to bail him out, but it was Tkachuk's turnover in the neutral zone that led to the odd-man situation overall. Kid is just not as sharp lately.

Would love a JT Miller type. Kreider is that and then some.

Yeah to my eye this is the biggest difference from before the break. The Flames best players have not been their best players. It seems a reasonable bet to think that they will not continue to slump for the rest of the year.
