Otherwise I'd say some line about Nolan Patrick.

What annoys me the most is in a dream where literally anything can happen, I'm dreaming about stupid contract negotiations and not the Flames actually winning the Cup.

Sigh.
Or, you know... girls

So you'd like to pay them way more in a few years when the are actually at their primes and make it tougher then to bring in support players?

Even in your dream, your dreaming about a scenario where our core players aren't good enough to get it done this year so want to bring in more help for them. The supporting cast inst the problem. As a whole our young core isn't getting it done this year, new support players wouldn't change that.

Maybe he falls a few spots to us because of his injuries?! Since you know, the Flames will never draft first overall.

Contemplating what life will be like for the next little while, not caring if the Flames are able to fix this mess. Fire Gulutzan, Sigalet, Treliving... whatever

We've had 4 straight games where we've been down 4-0. There is plenty of time to give them a run for their money...

This is so frustrating as a Flames fan, especially with Oilers fans rubbing it in.

Flames trying to build a team without picking 1st overall every year, and suddenly the Oilers tanking strategy works when they luck out with the best player since Crosby. This after the lottery rules were changed to favour teams outside the bottom 5 - a change made to restrict the Oilers - and they were the ones who benefited from it.

Now we got these Tweets

Flames might want to think about winning some draft lotteries. Just sayin

Sit Johnny for at least one game. He has been ineffective as of late.
And no, I have not watched the last few games. Check sports net on my phone, and here.

Gulutzan says that with some logistical issues in the way, they are considering waiving tomorrow's mandatory day off.
