I wish for once we would take advantage of an opportunity.

Could have been 3 points behind them. Now 7.

[Bonded]

So, I tuned out after 4. Were 4-7 all on Markstrom

[Rejean31]

Getting embarrassed by this #### show 2 man team twice in one season is disgraceful!!!

[shadowlord]

Puck hits Mangiapane's skate in the neutral zone and he falls over. Drink!

[CaptainYooh]

Starting gofundme campaign to raise $10 for sharpening Mangiapane’s skates.

[zamler]

Team has zero pride.

Catching the Oilers is still very possible IMO. They still suck, and they have a tougher schedule from here on out.

Criticism = bandwagon jumping?

I'm worried about the next 2 games on back to back nights against a very talented and pissed off Leafs team...

Fair concern, or unreasonable?

[king_amonte]

Would love to see someone get mad and show some emotion. Send a message for the next game or something. Just don’t go quietly into the night.

[genetic_phreek]

All the people defending this dump and chase boring style hockey, it's just not sustainable to play this way with this roster. If we gonna lose, I still want entertainment or hope.

[DoubleK]

Bennett is so bad at hockey

[3rd liner]

At least take that arrogant ***** Smith down a notch or two by putting a few by him.

Counterpoint - the Flames are playing like crap so you might wreck Rittich as well before the next game.

And yet are still a way better team than the flames.

Its been rough but the coilers made the best of every scoring chance and Smith has weathered the storm and helpes fix the dump and chase problems

[badradio]

I hate losing more than these players do... no fight back at all...

I thought that this kind of embarrassment would have been washed away. This creeping back 3 games into a new coach bump is definitely a bit troubling for me.

Park the team bus on Deerfoot and make them carry their gear to the plane.

God I just hope JG doesn’t pull a Tavares and is honest with Tre as to his intentions.

[djsFlames]

Lol what happened between those periods?

They were playing great, didn't need to change a thing.

Why come out and completely wilt? Time for Darryl to make men out of these boys. Feeling sorry for yourself doesn't win games. Hopefully they'll come to understand that.

Need to get to a place where it becomes about playing the right way more than what the score is. Aiming to play the right way naturally leads to the results, but you have to start there.

[Red_Baron]

Had to turn it off. My mental health just can't handle this right now.
