We need a shake up before it’s too late. Trade some guys. Fire the coach. Do something.

These terrible starts are going to be the end of the season before long.

Didn’t watch the whole game, but what I saw was a lot of stick waving, fly bys, and attempted tip passes rather than accepting a pass....just Screams lack of battle/effort. Just lazy.

And the fancy spin moves or little chips to themselves in the D zone (which resulted in turn over after turn over) were frustrating to watch.

That’s some peewee level plays that coaches there would be correcting....

On another upside, at least covid prevents us from being able to see these games in person.

I do question Tkachuk. The points he has have been quiet ones. Glad he showed up after 60 as somebody had to, but would have (not “would of” - that’s not a thing) been nice if he contributed materially during regulation time

Guys saying Ward didn’t adjust? ####ing grow up. He adjusted to Mikael Frickin’ Backlund being out, plus Lindholm temporarily
Yup, poor flames. They deserved better tonight. Lol "embarrassing" 🙄

I don’t think you have a full grasp of the control that Ward has on the players, in these situations.

He has the remote control! He makes their decisions for them.

I thought we at least got to pick between boring effective hockey and exciting losing hockey.

Right now this is boring losing hockey.

I'm amazed you think players elect to give the puck away.
Im amazed you actually believe it was coaching that produced the entire inability to make or receive simple 5 foot passes....particularly when i watched them do just fine in that department the vast majority of the year. Why wasnt it "coaching" then?

But please do educate me on coaching....im all ears.

Ward will run out his contract and will never coach in the NHL again. Except maybe in Edmonton.

Funny how people choose to blame certain players for almost anything. There were 2 or 3 players more at fault than Bennett on that goal, but whatever. Whole team sucked tonight (minus Markstrom).

I didn’t say they deserved better. But the people coming unglued could use some perspective.

Teams lose. Every game one team loses. Tonight it was the Flames. ####ing deal with it

One of the most embarrassing games I have seen in quite a while. Green made some adjustments for this game and our coaches couldn't do anything. The players play the system, but there is no plan b, or c, or anything resembling a plan. Do the same thing. Do the same thing. There are no options. I HATE our system. So easy to defend. We might be on the edge of a losing streak. Good on the Canucks. A totally deserved win.
