I don't think the object of the 4th line is to necessarily score.

Flames can’t make a clean pass.

when people say lucic wins board battles, I wonder if I am watching a different game.

He gets pickpocketed every shift it feels like.

Tkachuk needs a finisher in his line. Numerous chances he's gotten the puck out front from behind or the corner and Eat Bread is 1 second too late to recognize and Backlund is nowhere near any traffic.

Most of those are blind passes though. He shouldn’t do that.

That's vintage Gaudreau right now. Gaining the zone with speed, slowing down right into the defender, losing the puck for a turnover. It's like he's doing it on purpose at this point.

There's definitely something going on with him this year, and I have a hunch it might be some sort of off ice issue. Dude just doesn't look engaged.

They should at least be able to do something, but that isnt the case.

Anyone know if Neal and Johnny were tight last year? Dude is really off this year just wondering if Neal leaving has something to do with it.

Yup. I'm actually pretty close to shutting this game off and watching a movie or something, even though it's only 1-0. Just awful hockey from the Flames in this period so far.

Ya but he kicks the living #### out of the boards. They hardly know what hit them.

Again, do opponent broadcasters talk or gush or show highlights of the opponent as much about the Flames, as Snet talks about their opponents night after night?
