No bit his mindless play has completely shifted momentum at times. Both game 2 and 3

Gaudreau seems disinterested to me.

If it weren't for Smith making some great saves this game would be closing out 9-1. Outside of that its's a repeat of the game against Pittsburgh earlier this season.

No defence, no offence, fantastically bad special teams, nothing on the GAF meter outside of Smith and Bennett.

I mean........this roster won the conference. Awfully decieving and this probably isn't what you'd expect in the playoffs from a team that managed that.

Imagine how head scratching it is for Tampa right now. How do you "improve" that team after a historical season? I mean ####.

POs are such a crapshoot.

I'm insane. I know this. Why do I know this? Because I think they can still come back and win this game.

His best response would be to critique and embarrass the “top guys” in the post game press conference.

A la Darryl Sutter. See how they respond. Stand up, sit down or get out of the way.

[Ferarri]

Truly been a disappointment. Expected a lot more from the flames.

Should we be surprised though? This franchise has been a failure for most of its existence.

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Just looking for a positive or two this period.

One of the worst playoff performances I can remember, and there has been a lot of them.

[the_only_turek_fan]

Reminds me of the early 90s. Great regular season. No show in the playoffs.

[Phaneuf_Phan]

The last time I was this mad at a lazy Flames team was the last time they made the playoffs.

Hence the series so far. It's really not rocket surgery.

You'd think these are the ABCs of playoff hockey and that Bill would have those bases covered...

Peters can’t force all 6 defensemen (all have been trash) to stop backing off. Players gotta play.

I'm out for tonight, too much risk of destroying stuff around my house. That and Cassie Campbell's color commentary, is grating at my last nerve.

I was hoping giving up a game tying goal with less than 3 minutes to play and losing in OT would do that

I'd say that's exactly the opposite problem with him.

Johnny gets frustrated or physically dominated and tries too hard and makes bad decisions.

[Manhattanboy]

Lol I don’t even know the score.

Well they cant change out the whole team, but they will change out some combination of players...and Brodie could very easily be one of those players...hence the question from Sporty.

I'm still hanging on for the comeback tonight.
May not happen but I'm still cheering for it. Besides, it's a playoff series. The score doesn't matter. Third period is an opportunity to reset and find their game.
