Totally agree. I hate seeing them play this bad as the losses mount but this team needs some major changes and the play of Kipper has masked some major problems the past few years. With below average goaltending this is what happens

And then in two years when the only two good players left on the roster are gone, we're right back in this position anyway.

Both the Heat and the Ice Hogs have their backs against the wall for a playoff spot, so expect a crazy game.

Forget defense or offense or whatever......the one thing this team is missing more than anything is heart. Too many players tonight, and this season, have played like they just don't care enough.

And I hope for all he has done for this franchise that Kipper gets the respect he deserves and his coach lets him sit on the bench for the 3rd. The team doesn't care, no point in embarrassing Kipper any further.

I can completely see why some people want to keep this team together now. The hustle and emotion some of these guys show is a sure fire way to get a high draft pick every time!

All summer the rebuild crowd got to hear the 'shame on you for wanting to lose' sermon. Apparently we weren't the ones promoting a losing strategy. Glad we went this direction. Yay us.

Feaster's going to try to make a desperation move to try and save his skin which in turn will handicap this franchise for years to come. This team is miles away from being a playoff team. He better be looking at selling veterans and not picks.

No kidding. This team was made to win now.

They are not doing their job. They'll get rewarded for it by being traded to contenders.

I wish they could be traded to Metagursk or Siberia or something.

Have to agree with this post. They have been bad defensively for a couple of years now, but this is new low.

This team is in worse shape then i ever thought. Many players need to go, Feaster needs to go and more than likely the coach needs to go. Can't forget about Ken King, but he just needs a promotion away from hockey opps.

Ehhh. If Kiprusoff had missed a substantial portion of last year the Flames would have been in the lottery.

And how would that be the best thing? So our owners and management can be fooled into thinking we are actually icing a good hockey club again? This team needs change. It's so clear! We are not a competitive team and haven't been with this core for awhile now. It's time for change.
