Poor Reto Berra....

In his last five games he's stopped 137/147 shots for a 0.932 save percentage, and allowed 10 goals for a GAA of 2.00, yet he only has one win to show for it and he had to earn that in a shoot out.

Plus, two of those games were against Boston and one was against St. Louis.

In those four losses he's allowed 2 goals three times, and 1 goal the other time.

Exactly, so don't pretend you are above insults or jabs. It's all in good fun.

Agreed, but its not like the Flames are going anywhere and Smith wont be a difference maker for them. Id rather just play Breen and see if he can improve.

Ummmm, yeah. Did you watch both games? Cause there were some pretty noticeable differences in the performances.

I did watch both games, and I read both PGT(s).

That's part of the frustration right? Come back, play with heart and win (St Louis) everyone is happy. Crap the bed two games in a row against hated rivals and you get this reaction. Not really much of a surprise.

Bad game. Decent third.
I am hesitant to judge a team on mid to late December play. It's always a tough mental time for the players.
I expect we return to our "never give up" attitude and demeanor by Tuesday.

Worst game of the season? Not quite. The Sharks game was unbearable.

The best hockey in the city right now is the Mac's Tournament. I've had a great time. In hindsight I sorta wish I stayed at Max Bell for the evening game.

It's games like this when I appreciate road games. It's nice to watch the Flames suck it without having to leave the house.

I think that the effort was certainly there tonight, I just don't think they played a smart game especially in terms of finding a shooting lane, they also way over passed the puck tonight.

I am concerned about Monahan he just seems to not have the confidence that he had at the start of the season. Maybe he's still feeling the injury, but he just looks unsure of himself in the offensive zone.

I think O'brien has played the best hockey of his career over the last 10 games.

O'Brien reminds me somewhat of Anders Eriksson (not in terms of how they play). Both players have a lot of talent, but do not think the game well enough to properly utilize their skills.

If O'Brien thought the game as well as Brodie does, he'd be a valuable top 4 defenseman.
