[skcli]

Now we get a marshmallow team or what ? Tangs is noticeable all night for his 2 penalties

Well Tanguay has been victimized on two plays where he is clearly playing out of position. But yes he has sucked. Glencross is simply not trying which is often the case if he is in any sort of offensive role.

Would anyone fly me into Vancouver so I can kill these commentators? It's like Calgary is their abusive stepfather or something.

3 weak penalties by the Flames. First two was embellished and ref fell for it. Cervenka's penalty is also weak. Canucks players are just in front of the net way too much tonight and something has to change.

Jaybo is way to soft in front of his net on pk

We started chasing the sedins too much and its trickling down, need to settle.

[kyuss275]

The only forward from top 6 that have showed up to play is Street.

You can help but think we have a pretty good team even when Iginla doesn't bother to play... which is far too common. How much better off would our team be trading him off for some younger talent?

That said, I've not been a big Iginla fan for a few years now... in many ways, his ongoing slumps are the difference that we've missed the playoffs so many years.

[StrykerSteve]

Calgary is playing awful.

[indes]

I would throw Stajan on the top line right now and run

Tanguay - Stajan - Iggy
Glencross - Cerv - Hudler

Street isn't terrible but he doesnt belong on the 2nd line over Stajan...

[zamler]

Let's not blame this in the refs please, Calgary has been flat out terrible this period from the goaltender on out.

[dissentowner]

this is ridiculous...

[calgARI]

Inexcusable call. Absolutely inexcusable. Joke.

Criticizing Iggy is sacrilig'

What more can we expect from someone at the end of his career. I'm just surprised he played the most forward minutes in the first while Hudler was sat for most of the period. Maybe hudler needs to befriend Gelly and Connie

[HPLovecraft]

Lol, wtf was that by Hudler?

[Short Shift]

Are you f-ing serious?

[Ashasx]

Ballard sure fell hard there.

LOL WHAT A DIVE

[Machiavelli]

Good lord. That's a dumb penalty.

[Roof-Daddy]

The Flames of the last three years would fold up like a cheap tent right about now.

Let's see if this years version has anything to give.
