			Effort level is unacceptable.  Should have two players attacking the loose pucks on a PP, not floating around watching a lengthy 2-on-1 develop.
 Less than a month til playoffs, these aren’t dog days of the season anymore.

Sounded post and in and but I could be wrong. I’m talking about the other four besides Gio that stood and watched after NJ got puck.

			Rittich hasn't been the same since Kane scored that weird goal a few weeks ago.

			I maintain my strong reservations that this goalie tandem is going to have playoff success.
 Brad should have gone after a tender.

No goalie would be getting crucified there.   Rittich cheated because it was a 3 on 1 where the 1 guy back was a forward.

Yeah we're in big trouble this year with our goaltending. I hope I'm wrong, but it's not looking likely.

			Chucky drew that penalty after a long shift, then starts on the PP. Tough call to sit PP1 though, but maybe should have gone with 2D.
 Not sure how Lindholm was so unaware on the shorthanded goal. He's playing the right point FFS.

			Frankly, Rittich has not looked good but this is all on the Flames coaching staff. Sitting him for no reason after the break ruined his confidence and now they have two #### goalies.

			Its obvious all we need is some good, solid, consistent and occasionally excellent goal tending. Sadly this is not happening.This team cannot continue to win by scoring their way out of trouble, this  has been the problem in the last few weeks.

Yeah, they were deep, but it was the powerplay and the puck was at the net.

			Ouch. Terrible game
 - Gio is off.
 -Brodie continues to be the worst player on the ice. When Gio isn’t handling the load Brodie is an AHLer
 - Brutal game by Rittich.

He's had a .898 save percentage over his last 20 starts. He deserved to sit, and he deserves to get pulled after those first two periods.

			Hopefully the Flames find another gear in the 3rd like they usually do, get the 2 points, and forget about this clown show.
