Not to pile on GG, but does anyone have a list of NHL coaches currently without jobs?

That's step one in cleaning up this mess.


Brouwer can have some PK and 4th line garbage minutes. The fact that tomorrow Jankowski will be sent down and Stajan is still on the team is a travesty.

I’m doing the George Costanza thing. Tonight is opposite night. Thought it would be better than joining in with the calls for heads to roll.

Gulutzan might be reluctant to light a fire under them but they need it

yeah, I worry that you're absolutely right about this.

He'd never clear waivers and we'd lose him for nothing.

I can't believe the team mortgaged all those future draft picks for this team. So depressing.

The bottom six can’t acore goals. Tre knew this would be a problem and we are watching it manifest right before our eyes.

Fact is we could be winless this year but for Smith.

Why do we suck so bad at home? Where's the team that beat Anaheim and LA? I miss those guys. They were fun to watch.

The Caps are gonna eat us alive on Sunday if we don't figure out what's wrong with our special teams.

If Arizona and Nashville each score a single goal tomorrow, the flames will be 29th in the league in scoring.

You don't win many games by scoring 1 goal.

Something has to give.

You know what's less fun than starting 5-6-0? Starting 5-10-1.

The Flames look better now than they did in October last year, and I'm confident that as they continue to find their legs, they'll improve. They're operating way under NHL averages in a number of luck-based categories right now, which will more-than-likely improve to the mean. I'm not worried.

Last week there was an article posted about bringing up the entire first line of Stockton instead of just Jankowski. Mangiapane-Jankowski-Hathaway might just be a game breaking line at the moment. That would be fun.

Until they learn the system, I guess.

I don't think gulutzan is very intelligent. He has a decent system but is not very good at applying it to this specific set of players and incorporating their strengths.

When you need to tie a game you strap your lines with 0 goals to the bench. Moron!

Any of these guys is an upgrade.
