The disappointment for me isn’t in the score (it doesn’t matter) or Gudbransson it’s the performance of guys that you are looking to lead to take a step this season: Dube, Jusso, Andersson, Mackey. Where are those guys?

This Bakersfield team is deeeep. (I used to watch Bakersfield in the 80's when it was a fight fest )

Yeah it's preseason

But this is exactly what happens when you need a big change up to your team but refuse to make it and instead fill out your roster with old UFAs who run around and hit guys.

Some of these guys are ones that they brought in to help our depth..

Seattle Kraken, in their first game EVER, looking 10x better than this garbage Flames team. Sure would be nice to build a winning mentality right from the start of a season!!

It's their first competitive game of the year. (Though to be fair my expectations are really low anyways)

Nonsense. It is a preseason game; no different from any preseason game ever.

It's not likely a case of winning the third as much as it is "can they complete more than 2 passes in a row" and "will they be able to hit the net... at all" and "can they make one decent defensive play".

Just tuning in. 3-0, eh. Judging by this thread, I guess the Flames should just pack it in and give up on the season already.

Backlund and Dube should be chewing up their competition.

Instead hacking at guys playing faster than them and taking penalties.

Anyone expecting anything from Backlund in this game was bound to be disappointed. He's just doing what he can to get a good skate in without getting injured.

Literally no one is saying that, so relax.

God, these kinds of comments are tiring.

Its almost as if this game isn't a big deal to them since they aren't trying desperately to make the NHL
