Bad players simply can’t be on rosters in this league anymore.
Tonight, Glass and Hathaway have had good shifts. Better, IMO than the third line.

I have. What part am I incorrect on? Taking the long way back, around the net?
As the defenseman, taking the same urgency and strides as Jankowski, did from the Sharks zone to the Flames blue line? And stopping even those strides when he hits the Flames blue line and gliding in?

How was Treliving smart enough to avoid re-signing Glecross and Colborne, yet dumb enough to give Brouwer a 4 year contract?

Bad defensive play aside, Johnny has been good.

He's looking good, I can see a good case for trading Hamonic in the offseason if we can get a 1/1A R wing for him.

Have they helped the team score more than the other team? Nope.

Other teams roll 4 effective lines, yet the Flames love to have dumb role players, overpaid veterans, or flat out bad players fill out their bottom lines. It’s no bloody wonder we’re a tire fire.

If anyone can make a case for why glass and Stewart are playing while shore is scratched again despite being a better and a potential part of the future here I would love to hear it. Call up a kid or two to see what the future looks like... nope, better play the guys who won't be in the league next year.

Well, going forward, hopefully this organization has learned one thing. Do not, under any circumstances whatsoever, ever and I mean ever hire a red headed coach with the initials of G G. Been down that road twice and both times it has been an unmitigated disaster!!!

Even though they shoot the same, Hamonic isn't the guy you move to make room for Rasmus.

What a dick Kane is. Shoves Rittich, rightly gets shoved by Gio, tries to fight Backlund because of it.

Let's see if they give a penalty to Kane. Should be two penalties.

Wow. They did. Good.

Kane completely thought it was backs who jumped him when it was Gio.

Would’ve been nice to pick up Kane at the deadline. He’s 4 goals in 2 games in us...

See how a Shark was right in the goalies face? The Flames should try that.

Backlund owes Hamonic there! Stewart or glass, you're up.

LMAO. There were already Four guys there, plus linesmen. Brouwer has a broken face and is wearing cage - you don't get into a fight wearing a cage. Brouwer has already been there to punish players for abusing goalies and Gio this year. Ask Justin Abelkader.
