Well this was interesting... reminded me of an enema really, lots of anticipation followed my a period of regretful anguish and then finally a numb but pleasant feeling of relief.

I don't know why I wasted an afternoon on that, I could have been stabbing myself in the eyeballs instead

At this point I'm just clinging to the hope that they will somehow put things together somewhere around christmas and then go on a tear to finish the season. A complete reverse from last year. Because they sure don't have anything at all put together right now.

Well, that was a waste of 2 1/2 hours.

This team just stinks sometimes. Too small, too slow, too inept, too uninterested.

Changes are needed.

Nah. They have to ride this season out and see where it goes. Changes will need to be made in the offseason. It sucks watching mediocrity but there will not be any quick fixes available. There is too much at stake to be making moves for the sake of making moves.

Also because they don't have enough cap space to make meaningful changes.

Flames don’t dictate hockey games at all, they sit back and let the opposition play their game and respond to that.

Really displeased by their lack of flexibility to address anything in-season as well, although we knew going in it was unlikely as Tree couldn’t get things done in the offseason either.

Disappointing.

People writing off the season with 60 games to go when team currently in a playoff spot.

Never change CP.

Similar but I was thinking constipation.

A long period of discomfort and unpleasantness, followed by pain. Relief that it’s done for now but feeling anxious its gonna repeat again soon.

Bringing someone up isn't a bad idea right now.

Yeah I think at this point even it they did turn it around the best bet is to move your UFAs, stock pile some assets, and then go for the retool in the offseason.

Mid season roster changes don’t usually end up too well.

Probably this summer.

Trade dealine- trade brodie, hamonic, backlund, johnny load up on young players and quality picks

Summer- listen on Gio, trade ryan.

Draft- once in top 5, once more in top 20 and once in top 25,

6 total picks in top 60

Tkachuk gets captian, Hanifin and Anderson top pair, lindholm and monahan fight to stay top 6 centers with new high end young players.

Idk im drunk

Team got smoked in the playoffs and made no changes. Team looks worse to start the year than they did in the playoffs.

Team doesn’t deserve to make the playoffs with the way they are playing. Look like poo all over. Nice GWG assist by the goalie. Horribly stupid play.
