Conroy did a nice couple things over the summer, but he can't be finished. This is not a complete or functional team right now.

Bright spots for sure, but nothing notable.

Was at the game, haven’t seen a lack of skill on the flames this severe since probably 2014. Don’t be surprised if we are bottom 5 in the conference.

Can’t you tell, that’s what we’re doing. Top 3 pick in this years draft, coming up.

Seriously.

We got rid of the big bad Oogie Boogie, and nothing has changed. You know why? Because it’s a dog#%^* roster.

Just lose, and let attendance continue to plummet. Time for the fans to tell the organization that this isn’t good enough.

Mangiapane, Greer, Dueher. Only players that have been even half decent this season. How do the coaches pull that off? It's pretty spectacular really.

Here's a big tell to me:

The fans didn't even boo the Flames off the ice. They just left in silence. Because there's no reason to care.

That would be a dream.

Actually best case (somewhat realistic) scenario

Darryl Sutter, hall of fame coach, couldn’t do it.

Ryan Huska, that guy that once played with Iggy, can’t do it.

Man, they just don’t have the talent. The coach doesn’t matter. They don’t have the players.

Even an antisocial cup-winning coach is probably a better bet than a rookie nice guy with one d-zone adjustment to bring to the table.

Now can we load up on picks and give the kids the reins?

That's the only way they're going to keep any one attending these games another 39 times.

Plenty has changed, we’re much worse now!

That’s a bad group of hockey players.

We are so short of talent compared to the other teams.

Huberdeau is washed up.

Special teams were no good, Markstrom with a soft goal against, and the team couldn't finish.

I didn't hate their game at 5v5 to be honest, created lots of chances and Shesterkin was good.

Special teams in the second was what killed then.
