I notice lately that the same posters are dooming every game. So tiresome.

Down two goals. Then they wake up.

Possess the puck, come with numbers and gain the zone.

Playing gingerly and not checking anyone.

Letting up on hits now. Flames afraid to touch the Jets out of fear of more ticky tack penalty calls?

Our coaching just doesn't adapt. It feels like I'm watching the young guns again

Ugh. Well, at least the Flames look like they are starting to play. 20 minutes after the game starts, of course.

That was a pretty frustrating period. Flames couldn't get any control or offensive zone presence and they couldn't generate any scoring chances because of that.

Who else we should keep in the expansion draft if they continue to play like this? Should we just keep the goaltender ?

Almost as if the Jets knew what was coming as far as style, and employ a style to defend it and not get the Flames any foothold or momentum. Maybe the same as the first game against them? Pretty pedestrian game plan, effort can be there (and is) but the Jets are lined up for the style the Flames play, so all the effort in the world waking into that won't help. Question is, can Ward adjust and then adjust again when the Jets adjust?

Backlund is all sorts of trash this season if he's not headbutting guys and hitting empty nets. The main job on the PK is to prevent the cross box passes and he's let a few through this season that resulted in goals.

Don't think they've been that bad other than the PK, but Connor is elite. They likely will get the next one.

A bit of a fire drill out there. Effort seems to be there but execution is lacking.

Gio's penalty started with a terrible outlet pass. Hard to watch our Captain clearly struggling so mightily.

Kyle Connor is so insanely good, it's annoying.

On a positive note, I really love the way Tanev plays. Like how we all thought Hamonic would play. Solid as they get.
