My biggest concern is Treliving takes the nuclear approach to fixing the goaltending and opens the bank vault to sign Bishop. Better option going forward I guess, but the idea of a $7M goalie is scary.

It's time like these I remember how unfunny and derivative the vast majority of Calgarypuck is.

The idea of sub .850 starting goaltending is equally terrifying.

The reason Bishop isn't a Flame right now is because Treliving balked at those contract demands when the Lightning allowed them to talk contract. After Bishop's season I simply don't see him offering anything close to that.

bishop has lost his chance at a $7 million salary. Terrible this season

Might as well give the Habs another PP. Not like the Flames are going to get a goal tonight.

I'm sorry but this isn't your average slump. Someone needs to grow a pair of balls and fire this ####ing coach, this is a complete #### show. Management needs to realize they ####ed up with this hire and the ####ed up their evaluation of this team. Still rebuilding not near being a contender and they have a coach with zero emotion and zero motivation ability. Coaches have been fired for a hell of a lot less than this #### palooza.

I think if hte Flames had any kind of goal support, Johnson wouldn't be a bad 1a for this team going forward on a short term deal until a goalie prospect is ready and you get a few years out of them on a good deal.

I think if the Flames had a 25 goal scorer on this roster the Flames would be a playoff team and I see that happening next year.

The lack of scoring is such a hurdle unless you have elite level goaltending with a complimentary defence. The flames have neither, so, best to try to load up a bit on offense until some prospects give you the flexibility to be more balanced.

Should have waited another couple of seconds to post. Another PP goal for the Habs. This can't last much longer, can it?
