GT - Flames at Tampa

[direwolf]

Yikes, I’m glad I missed most of this game. There’s still enough time to right the ship and get these guys playing a more consistent game. But I’m also starting to think that maybe they just don’t have it this year.

I’m not giving up on them yet, but man, they really need to get their s*** together if they want to do any damage this year.

[N-E-B]

I get that Sutter wants to roll 4 lines but he really needs to start playing our top guys together, and more. Be patient with them. It might take 10 games for them to gel. But I’d rather watch Huberdeau and Kadri struggle together than watch Lucic and Lewis in top-9 roles.

We’re being out coached this season.

I'll be honest, the worst part is complaining about the negativity. Makes it literally 200% worse.

Don't get upset when people think bad team is bad.

Don't let a forum drain you

Is it more, less, or equally as draining as the constant losing?

Jakob Markstrom ladies and gentlemen.

[Bonded]

Man. That’s the worst goal I have seen a long time. Totally took them out of it.

Say what you will
But that Tampa retro logo is bad juju for sutter tonight

How is it draining though, when it's just a message board? For me, my enjoyment is based on the actual Flames team. I'm happy watching when they're excelling and much less happy watching when they suck.

The CP threads are more a byproduct of how the team is doing, but it has no bearing on my enjoyment of being a Flames fan and certainly would never "drain me" or have any effect on my mood or day.

Look at that, put your best players together and they have a good shift with a few good looks.

I like the physicality from Huby

[81MC]

My favourite part of CP lately is that when I open of the hockey threads it’s either people endlessly bemoaning the ####ty team, it’s people endlessly bemoaning the bemoaning party’s, and if not that it’s people debating the merits of the bemoaned.

[Patek23]

Look Huby Toffoli Kadri and we had some of our best scoring chances and proper possesion....

[Bonded]

I swear every year the Flames are hyped they suck. This is giving me Jokinen flashbacks

Huberdeau embracing his role as a bottom 6’er

Markstrom has let in more than a bad goal. He has been awful since his undressing by Edmonton. .889 and 3.06 this year simply doesn't cut it. I'm not sure what you do with him at this point. Hope he gets it together? Play Vladar more, but he hasn't exactly been lighting it up (in fact, his stats are worse)

I loved the heart there too, need more of that. That's why I really like Kadri, Coleman, and Z. You can tell they just hate losing.

[Logan]

Well at least Huberdeau having good game, markstrom should try to remember he’s a ####ing goaltender and stand infront of the ####ing puck

I don't think it's people complaining if they make good points or something that can be discussed.

But when there's non-stop negativity in all games now, win or lose, and it goes on and on and on I can see why people want to stop posting here.

It's supposed to be somewhat fun. This year hasn't been fun on here. Most GTs and PGTs have been pretty painful to read, unfortunately.

Shots 39-21 in our favour, like how we down 3-1
