Keep this up and they can remain in vacation mode for the rest of the season.

There's been way too many stinkers this year where they just come out and lay an egg for no apparent reason. It's one thing to lose, it's another to look utterly inept and play way worse than what you're capable of.

I'm really starting to think this is what we have to look forward to for many years to come.

Hanifin Anderson needed to step up in Tanev’s absence and they’ve had a pretty tough game.

Why does this group struggle vs hard skating gritty teams?

How can tree see this and think this group is gonna get anything done? Is it on markstrom? I think it’s the team. How many times do they make new goalies look amazing as well. Horrible year. This blackhawks team is going to get a shot at Bedard. We are going to keep spooning our wheels.

Shootin for the crest


Are the Flames donating points to the jackets and hawks so they can tank their way below them in the last 1/3?

If you want to blame the team in front of Markstrom, fair. But Markstrom hasn't done #### this season. Like at all. It's getting ####ing old.
He kept them in the game all first period when the team was crap. Then they just decided to quit playing at all.

If you aren’t watching the game, you really shouldn’t comment on the game.

They didn’t last year in the playoffs and they aren’t again. These guys are overrated…

If they thought he couldn't make saves then wouldn't they try harder defensively to help him out?

Sutter better keep Pelletier on huberdeau's line. Huberdeau already looks super comfortable with him. They will definitely start putting up points together.

I know, and it could get worse as the team ages. This is a team clearly constructed to try and win now.

Certainly, it seems that your guys are playing like being the home team will be enough to beat a bottom feeder. The effort your guys are giving, from back to front, just is not good enough.

No traffic in front, shooting at the goalie's crest. Recipe for a loss
