My golly, there are so much negativity on Calgarypuck these days. I've avoided all threads that have negative headings, now I can't even go in the GDT without getting depressed.

Those of you who have endured such chronic abuse from the Flames need to muster the courage and get out of this toxic relationship. It's best for everyone.

I hear that nice team in Edmonton is single again, maybe it's worth a phone call?

Maybe you're the joke? Bennett is a piece of crap. Bennett fans like to point as very small sample sizes to show what a burgeoning star he is, but the reality is he's a less talented version of Fail Yakupov. I get so sick of the sycophants who think he has talent when he's 350 games into his career and has clearly shown he is a train wreck of player. Bennett would be a minor league player if it were not for his draft position. Get the #### over Sam Bennett. He's bound for the European leagues, and in short order. Worst pick in Flames history. Accept it, and move on. Jesus people, when does 9 points in 39 games finally tell you what a piece of crap he is? Move on. Great mustache, but ####ty hockey player. Move on already. You're like the guy who dumped by the Great White Buffalo. He's never going to amount to what you believe he will be.

Canucks should roll tonight. No character (even Super Sam) and no direction from the Flames.

Niklas Sundblad, the Swedish Wendell Clark says hi for worst First rounder in Flames history. Jesper Mattson is also wondering why he is not considered.

I think Hughson jinxed Sam when he kept reminding people that he was 18 in that playoff run lol

VAN have good players so it will be a good test. CGY has good players too and needs to play to their strengths:

Move the puck with quick, smart passing. Exit clean, use the middle of the ice and make plays. Track back and defend hard and fast. Score goals!

So you just start with an insult when I’m pointing out that Bennett has been our best forward in a 5 game stretch? Grow up, learn how to have discussions with people who have different opinions than you.

You’re attacking me and not even discussing the fact that Bennett has been our most consistent forward over that 5 game stretch. Your desire to view Bennett as a piece of crap is your own business. Bennett’s play of late should be rewarded, instead the team is defaulting back to lines that haven’t had any success of late.

I believe Bennett to be a 3rd line energy player who can contribute in important games - which hey, he’s doing again. Your take on the player seems filled with some weird personal bias. Enjoy that, I’ll watch the game and see which forwards vanish when things get tough, and which players actually seem to get better under those circumstances.

It really is not necessary for you to be such a jerk. Recognizing that Bennett has had a handful of decent games is not even remotely akin to this straw man you have constructed of supposed "Bennett fans."

Tha amazing Canucks have a single shootout win in their last four games since the ASG.

Got invited in a corporate box tonight, don't think they know I'm a Flames fan. Hopefully they don't rescind the ticket when I show up in my Flames jersey.

6-2 Canucks is my guess and it will look a lot worse than that!

Flames blowout the Canucks tonight in their own barn. They’ve had enough of fiddle farting around. 6-1 flames.
