Hanafin and hamonic are brutal to watch. It's crazy how bad our 3 of our top 4 have looked for the better part of the season.

It's frustrating because the game was right there. if the Flames had an effort close to what they're capable of, we'd be getting 2 points tonight, or at least 1.

Solid game by Rittich as mentioned. Shame to waste it.

Sure shutouts are bad but I actually prefer them to losing a game like this:

Worse yet, the Coyotes take over first in the Pacific while sitting at home doing nothing.

The ice was terrible and so was our effort.
Nice game by Rittich and Bennett though.

Wouldn’t be surprised if the boys got in one after the big Edmonton win (I know I sure did LOL). Kind of figured they’d lose this one tbh.

Really unfortunate to follow up a great game from Saturday with such a dud tonight. Once again, team fails to put up even a single goal.

Hopefully not following up their winning streak with a losing streak.

Very boring game with little signs of life from the Flames. They looked like their legs were made of lead.

Get some rest and go beat Leafs and Sens.

Insane to me that that pairing remains intact. Dipping heavily into the negatives, lit up on many memorable occasions, at important times, yet still a thing.

Put Rasmus on the pair to do the babysitting.

Losing this game not a big surprise. It seems clear the Flames aren’t going to make it easy on themselves this season.

The Flames played like they spent all of last night at a swanky Montreal strip club.

Boring game but the wings and beer I had were good. Not all bad I guess.

I know we were all hoping for a win, but be honest with yourselves; who actually thought we were going to win?

I can't remember the last time we played an important emotional game, then followed it up with a great effort the next game.

Hanifin's "With Or Without You" indicates that Hamonic has been dragging him down since he arrived.

Stats are CF% at even strength.

2019-20 so far:
Hanifin without Hamonic: 51.25
Hamonic without Hanifin: 49.53
Together: 49.09

2018-19:
Hanifin without Hamonic: 55.45
Hamonic without Hanifin: 51.86
Together: 54.72

I thought the Flames were still in 1st but forgot they changed the tiebreaker from ROW to RW.
