Well at least our PK is getting a good workout. It's actually done quite well.

You knew the Leafs would come out hard tonight and the Flames just don't have it tonight. Not playing terrible but a level below the Leafs who simply want this game more.

Please list the 4 to 6 games they have looked good in...

Then we can discuss perspective

Have the Flames had any shots that haven't been directly into Campbell's crest?

If Flames had all their top guys play as hard as Tanev, things would be looking a lot rosier.

Perhaps they’re too talented to try that hard.

What happened to the speed the flames played with in the first few Sutter games? They look so plodding again.

Quit moving the goalposts. You said "terrible" in 3 games. They haven't looked terrible under Sutter (tonight notwithstanding). Average at times? Sure. But not terrible.

7 minutes into the third. Zilch to show for it.

Like if I'm Tanev, how do I not be pissed at Bennett for not getting that puck out and forcing me to have to block that shot?

It's possible I wouldn't be liked on teams, because I'd calling that stuff out all game long. I'd also expect people to call me out too, but that's just the way I work. Good teams should challenge each other to be better instead of just accepting each other's mistakes.

The effort is definitely there, our PK has been outstanding, and overall they've been pretty solid defensively.

Unfortunately the Flames just don't have the firepower to compete with such a stacked and deep Leafs team. Not to mention our PP is beyond dreadful and is clearly costing us points in the standings. If they ever can get that part of their game figured out, I think they'll be ok. But right now the offence just isn't there and it's killing us.

Firepower? They have zero goals

They have the firepower to score 2

Lot of Monahan and Gaudreau complaints but has anyone seen Lindholm do anything other than throw away a power play?
