Seattle is playing great, and Flames are struggling and Tanev is still out. And it's B2B with travel.

Expecting a resounding Flames victory and 60 minute effort.

Flames hockey

This is just so weird. That the team just collapses without him in the lineup. I mean, literally every other team wins games without Tanev in their lineup but this one can't? Odd.

And yeah, every team has their version of Tanev. But still, if one player breaks you like this that's concerning.

[Samonadreau]

Whoever said the S word in yesterdays GDT and then we got pumped 5-1 needs to make some sort of sacrifice to the hockey gods to make amends. They were angered.

[Burning Beard]

Burn the tape from last night, win tonight, come back after the break and win the damn cup. It has been foretold.

[skcli]

Just play to enter to the lottery. Or play the young guys to keep the fans entertained. That’s all.

[topfiverecords]

Easy shutout for the Kraken tonight.

[The Hendog]

Did Coleman come back to the game last night and available for tonight? He looked quite uncomfortable after going in the boards shoulder first.

Yep he's in.

Burned a lot of tape this year. Maybe that's why they're not improving.

Flames are already packed for their all-star break vacations. Even Vladar will be hung out to dry. Guaranteed loss.

At least the game is in your time zone today. Gotta find that silver lining.

I can't even watch it.. Friday night is swim night for my daughter. Might go to the arcade afterward. Pinball will be better than watching these sad sacks.

I don't blame you. I was out last night and it was a blessing.

[Always Earned Never Given]

Flames blow the Kraken out of the water as they always do the opposite of what us fans expect.

7-1

Vladar 1 goal and 3 assists.

[Nufy]

Did they even get out for Seattle ?

Snowmageddon is happening out there right now...

It's not the snow bringing chaos this time. Our new foe is the temperature hovering around zero.

[Johnny Makarov]

I still think the Kraken are still playing way over their heads. They will be in tough for a playoff spot by the end.

Basically what Sutter said. It's time for the others to step up. Unfortunately IMO Stone can't cut it and Mackey seems to be out of his depth. You can play one of those guys but not both.

[1_Flames_Fan]

Today's game and effort, GAF from the team will be very telling to me on their prospects of getting into the playoffs or not. I remain optimistic that they can put things together but that optimism will be fading with each loss.
