I better stop getting my hopes up about the team. Just disappointment after disappointment.

This is easily the most boring, stiffling three goal deficit I have ever watched.

He needs to do something, though. Highest paid player. The Flames don't have enough talent to make up for his lack of goal-scoring.

Not his fault, team has looked terrible, but too bad about those last two goals on Taylor. He looked pretty comfy all night but the last two appeared pretty weak to me.

Not easy to play a back to back against Phoenix. This is what they do: they get an early lead and then just string you along the entire game. It's demoralising.

But like one coach said recently, this season you're going to have a lot of nights when you're not feeling good, and if you want to be in the playoff hunt, you can't play well only when you're feeling good.

When we lose we always lose so badly, aka we just don't look good at all; minus the Chicago game.

I'm done with this game. I'm never going to watch a phoenix home game again.

Lack of talent?

I'm sure they won't miss the $10 that much.

Most overrated stat in the league.
They have been in their own end all game.

They are a bad line. Our highest paid forwards haven't been the reason the flames have won anything this season. There's nothing wrong in calling a spade a spade.

I don't know how much worse this team is with Iginla not on it. One less win, maybe two tops thus far.

Those are all NHL players yes. Talented stars? Not a one of them.

Not much though, in Phoenix you can pay 10 bucks and get a beer and a couple hotdogs. But for some reason, I doubt that is any consolation.

I think he's hit a wall, like an NFL running back.

They are awesome until they are not.

Given the nature of Iginla's success over the years, this isn't surprising. He wasn't the equivalent of Lidstrom, who out-geniused you to death.
