The Flames make these mistakes consistently. Why are the coaches not addressing it?
Why is Brouwer in the powerplay? Why is Glass on the penalty kill?
I don’t love those decisions either but that’s not why they are losing
Zero production from the top lines
Horrible play from the top 4 d, gio aside
Best players playing awful
Couple that with unsteady tending and it’s a recipie for disaster
I am 90% sure the Islanders will be drafting top 3. Because.
You just know it's gonna happen, and it's gonna suck, and I'll be pissed at Treliving for being dumb enough to hold onto Gulutzan when the window to fire him and salvage the season was open.

How do you come out of those 2 periods thinking this? Look at what he's playing behind. He may not be having an elite night, but he's made some huge saves and the Flames are giving up nothing but high danger chances.

Do people on here seriously think that getting a new coach is the answer? These losers can't play for anyone! We actually look more pathetic than the losers up north. At least they have one player - we seem to have no one to pin our hopes to. And as much as I love Tkachuk, he's never gonna lead the league in scoring.
Absolutley. This is what it looks like when a team gives up on their coach.

This team is a stinky pile of dog #### and doesn't stand a chance in the playoffs if they somehow miraculously make it in. I've never actually been so angry watching Flames hockey. The team is boring, they constantly make major mistakes, and they're fragile. They need a new coach, they need a new bottom 6, their defense is overrated and they need scoring help. Probably going to see the 1st round pick for Hamonic turn into a lottery pick for NYI.
It will be such a horrible disappointment if this team misses the playoffs. Watching Garth Snow take Brady Tkachuk with our pick is going to make me throw up.

I disagree with almost everything in that statement.
I think a coaching change would be the most impact answer, but not the only answer. Yes, the reason they can't play for "anyone" is largely because of the coaching. No, it's possible to be more pathetic than the Oilers, not even close.
The Flames are more well balanced than the Oilers, how is that a bad thing?
The conclusion is utterly predictable. Flames will flail for a while to start the third. Miss some chances, get some chances but not score, will get frustrated and take penalties, get scored on and lose...I’ll say 5-2. That’s this team. Fire everyone.

Guy is playing terrible he has been beat clean about 10 times
@Fan960Steinberg
Calgary had New York on the run virtually the entire first period. Unraveled in the second.
@NatStatTrick had high danger chances 10-3 Rangers in the second period. #Flames
Flames lucky to only be down 2 after a period like that.

The coaches are setting this team up to fail. The number of times they have actually dressed the best available roster with the players available to them can be counted on one hand this season.
Player deployment within the game is even worse. The Flames are down 2 goals in a must win game yet the 4th line still receives regular ice time. Nothing makes sense with these coaches.
