Yes, if we traded Vladar, he would probably also manage to shut us out.

The organization has never once worked this way under Edwards, but I guess there’s a first time for everything.

We could also get a sequence of garbage-in, garbage-out deals to try and salvage the sinking ship like Phaneuf, Jokinen, and Staios. Then the org can pat themselves on the back and say “see, we did something.”

No. Someone mentioned trading him to Montreal, it won't happen but if it did I would bet anything Huberdeau is at minimum a ppg player there given how they play offensively.

This is bad to watch but Zadorov tackling that dude was sweet.

You're giving him way too much credit. The Flames are making it easy for him.

Another scoring opportunity that was wasted due to lack of skill and a dribbler on net. It's the players...

Honestly Zadorov was spot on. Just a bunch of individual pieces who refuse to play as a team.

I just realized it’s been 8 years since Hudler/Monny/Johnny/Bouma/Ferland/Brodano/BigUrn.

This team used to be fun. I don’t feel much of anything other than apathetic disappointment at how this teams been managed over the last two years.

I think him and Nurse are #1 and #2

Honestly the forward group isn't elite. But the coaching staff is doing the same thing as last year where they panic and don't let chemistry develop.

Mangiapane-Lindholm-Huberdeau
Coleman-Backlund - Coronato
Ruzicka-Kadri - Dube
Greer-Sharangovich-Duehr

Those lines at least looked to be showing some chemistry and were creating chances. Maybe you could have flipped Dube and Sharangovich but you didn't need to go full line blender.

Instead they went full line blender before the Detroit game, have been blending the lines ever since, and have refused to go back to those lines.

I honestly don't get it. After the game against Detroit they should have went back. But now three games later they still refuse to go back to those lines.

Anyone else pining for the freewheeling and high flying offence of the Brent Sutter days?

Disagree. One is an overpaid 5-6 D man, one is an elite playmaker stuck in a #### system that creates nothing.

This team would get Ted Lasso fired lol.

They are so bad, so useless, so uncoachable…

Glass half full: should be easy to get cheap tix to take my kids this year.
Half empty: Subjecting my kids to this garbage ensures they will not be Flames fans…. Maybe that is a good thing?

I can’t believe I was considering looking into season tickets for this garbage.

Well...if the Flames can't score, and the Oilers can't score, Sunday's game is gonna be a really boring 1-0 win for someone in a shootout...
