This team is a complete f'n joke. Ortio is garbage, waive him and send him to the minors. Remember the good old days when some thought he might get claimed? Ha. A garbage can with a stick taped to it is a better goalie.

What a complete embarrassment this team is from top to bottom. JG is the only player on this team I can work up to give to craps about. Bennett and Monohan occasionally as well, but the rest are garbage. Utter garbage.

And the Coilers will kick the crap out of this joke of a team tomorrow. Ramo will get light up like a Christmas tree.

Bennett and Gaudreau the only players a plus tonight. Both plus 1.

Engelland's puck handling has actually surpassed Russell/Wideman's now.

Yes that's what this team needs. More bad hockey players.

I just find it hilarious that this, of all seasons, is when the Oiler draft lottery rule change comes into effect.

And no - the Flames don't need more marginal NHLers. They need more GOOD NHLers.
Ok - I'll take marginal NHLer Byron over any marginal NHLer currently on the Flames.

I get your point though - we need more good players.

A rat line opened up from Calgary to Edmonton, apparently.

Good hockey players help you win at hockey. The Flames need players who win at fighting.

It'd be nice to win something.

Management's gotta stop standing pat here, the season is slipping away, some are already saying playoffs are out of reach. Fire a coach, or make a trade, or waive somebody, call up a couple prospects, do something different. Getting blown out this much is unacceptable and this goaltending should be unacceptable.

Sad part is we still got one more game to play in this nightmare month... Let's hope November looks a bit more optimistic.

Actually I'm in my way there now.

But I still like most here!

That will work in our favor. I doubt we end up bottom 3 (our puck luck, defense and goaltending will revert to the mean) but bottom 10 is now likely.

We will still have a good chance at one of the top 3 picks since first 3 picks are a lottery now.

You can't just do something for the sake of doing something - that could cause long-term dammage.
