Bring Back Mix Tapes @ChinookArchYYC
Ever since Gulutzan got mad at Gaudreau for getting scored on for a high risk play late, the Flames started to play for the tie in the 3rd. That’s 3 OT loses in a row.

If you can’t score more than one you’ll lose more often than not.

Jeez. Who could have predicted another 2-1 loss on home ice. This team is just flat out vanilla to watch

If this is a slump with Calgary getting points in each game I'll take it. It's no like they are playing really poorly.

Can we please fix special teams, every time I feel like both are back on track, one or both falters. It's like clockwork.

Look who we're playing tomorrow. The last 6 games the Flames played the Oilers, the Flames have shown up only once.

Each other time, it's been pure domination by the Oilers. Expect the latter tomorrow.

Another game lost thanks to the impotent PP. What's really frustrating is the team has the personnel to actually be really good on the PP.

As I've posted many times already:

Run the PP through Gaudreau on the right side flank, with Monahan in his office in the slot, Tkachuk in front of the net in the area he excels, with Gio on the right point and Hamilton on the left point/flank. Have 1 timer options on the point and can also work it down low on either side with Gaudreau/Hamilton who are very good on the PP. Could also set up Hamilton sneaking in from the point when Gaudreau has it...so many options and ways to set up scoring plays with that mix.

Have Brodie-Stone on the 2nd unit with Backlund and 2 of Janko/Ferland/Benett.

Why this is so fataing hard for NHL coaches like Cameron and GG2.0 to implement is beyond comprehension.

Powerplay is killing us. Getting ridiculous now.

From a 7 game winning streak to a 4 game losing streak.
3 game losing streak and points in 10 in a row.

Really can't be that pissed off about the results.

Deserved to lose that

Our lazy play has to stop. We can't afford to be dropping points especially at home.

Our home form is beyond a joke our power play is beyond a joke. Can't pass can't shoot and can't score

Oilers will rip this team apart tomorrow.

Changes need to happen and they need to happen quick

Too often this team is painfully predictable... and not in a good way.

P.S. I've seen Tkachuk a couple of times in OT and he's been... ineffective. Too slow, can't really create in open space, and I've seen him whiff on a few chances now

Not only did it lose us a point, it gave 2 to the Oi Ga who we are battling for a playoff spot.

C'mon man, really? The Flames were the better team tonight for 60 minutes, and played an even period in the 3rd.

The atrocious PP is the goat for losing the extra point.

You can tell there is no intensity in overtime. This team needs another top 6 forward.

Yay for loser points. Weren't we making fun of the Oilers last year for the same thing?
