Sense? You want to talk sense when the GM just re-upped Bieksa and Kesler?

Ryan Kesler is 30 years old and is signed until hes 36 for $6.875M.

That is straight up insane.

Bieksa? 30. Two more years at $4M.

Getzlaf and Perry. Both 30. Signed for the rest of eternity for $9M+.

The young players on that team are super screwed.

Overreaction much? It's just one poster expressing his opinion, and tbh I think Boudreau would be a great coach for the Flames. No need for "derp" insults.

In half of those seasons where he lost a game 7 he had won a series already (and in one case, two series). So it's a bit misleading.

I think that lots of coaches (and teams) would love to have those records.

Marc Crawford will now have a NHL team to coach next season. I m sure those former Canuckleheads will vouch for him. On a good side, looks like the Flames will end the Honda curse next season.

Right? Would it make it better if he was swept a few times or lost in game 5?
