No, I debate. There is a difference. I have strong opinions, that doesn't mean you can't have strong opposing opinions. I don't tell posters they need to leave, that would be trying to control and wrong. There are plenty of posters who piss others off depending on what side of the fence they are on in any given thread about something. That happens when you have really passionate fans, I have no issue with that at all. Can I come across abrasive? Sure. Most of us can when we get really engaged on a topic. It is just a message board man, if you think I am that annoying just ignore me. I would rather you engage my posts and debate them, even try to make me see another point of view, your choice .

Just watched the game. Read the game thread at the same time and gotta say, reading that made it seem like the Flames were sleeping, disinterested and crappy for much of the game. I thought the Flames looked very good start to finish.

You mean the crack analysis that the team is full of a bunch of losers who have no heart may actually be just emotional overreaction vs the “telling it like it is realism” it tries to get passed of as in the heat of the moment!?
Colour me shocked!

Guys, hear me out but I think I might be onto something...
The Flames' last 4 wins: 6-4 vs Anaheim, 6-0 @ Anaheim, 6-2 @ San Jose, 6-2 @ Vancouver.
As we all know, Satan is directly responsible for Flames victories (duh). And what's the Number of the Beast? 666!
Clearly the team has figured something out here. So I propose that the Flames should score 6 goals every game. It seems like a sure-fire way to guarantee a win!
Sorry for the hot take.

K what the #### is going on with the jerseys today? Why is Calgary wearing their road set and Anaheim wearing their home thirds? Those Anaheim jerseys look like Calgary's normal home tarps and it's ####ing me around.

A little late but I like to think that the bag drills in practice were run by none other than Gibby himself. Like Eakins just gave him the whistle and left.

Lindholm to Lindholm, it comes back to Lindholm. Now Lindholm has it again.

Early game on a fake holiday!!! This won't end well.

Come on boys get those legs under ya…. Get that lactic acid out.

Guhle playing 4th forward a lot. He’s fast so I don’t mind, but he’s got no hands:
Jones had a good shift only to fall on his ass, turn the puck over, and pout.
Quote:
I hate Calgary, well Gio mostly, but I honestly don’t wanna #### up our tank at this point.
If we lose out on drafting a top-flight forward (namely a C) as Getzy ages then I’m gonna be plenty pissed that these points we collected at various times of the stretch drive are the reason.
Quote:
It feels like both teams are off a bit, which is good b/c it's better than the alternative of us being off and the flames being on again. Ritchie almost had a PP goal. Wow!
Quote:
Also I love how Lindholms reaction to Tkachuk slash.... just skates like nothing happens
doughty would have likely fell and cried about it for 3 more years.
Quote:
Pretty even period. I mean much better start compared to the last game against this team. Lol.
Everyone Sucks

rakell looks bad and slow.. what is up with this guy
Quote:
So does our captain , top line been playing in our own zone more than not lately. Gudbranson still being out is very impactful, I always ask, nobody answers, anyone know his eta for us?
Quote:
BM has this offseason to fix it before I call for his head as well. I understand that he couldn’t necessarily predict Kesler and Perry breaking which ended our window, and led to the collapse last season. I always said he had this year to look at the roster under the new coach and come up with a plan for the future, but if he makes questionable choices for the roster again over the offseason, it’s time for him to go.
Quote:
Ya... I don't want BM here for a rebuild/changing of the guard.
The longer we wait to kinda reshuffle the team, the longer its going to take to get it back on track.

I'm not one to be very vocal when a player makes mistakes as there are a number of factors usually at play. However, the number of careless plays by Manson each game is frustrating and dumbfounding. Multiple times today he has turned the puck over or dumped it down the ice without pressure.
I understand that playing with Lindholm increases the quality of player he must defend against. But there is no excuse to have the puck on your stick, little to no pressure, a teammate next to you, and you dump the puck and surrender control. He can't be traded until someone else can replace his minutes, but he sure isn't playing well enough.
Quote:
in an ideal world until manson figures it out he should be a #4/5. we've seen him play much better previously. i think we need a player like manson in the lineup.
Quote:
Sorry buddy that was on Miller…
Quote:
What is defense even really though?
Quote:
Forget star centers, we need blue liners.

That was quick

Oh boy… damn…

What a bunch of clowns It pains me so much
Quote:
Ahh rad, rookie d men ####ing up spectacularly
Quote:
know he had a goal last game but other than that Guhle is total garbage. Why is he ever in the lineup over MDZ? And why on God's green earth did we trade Montour for him!?!?!?
Tkachuk scores the go-ahead

Gotta be better … and it that’s total punk ###### Pukechuk…

Thank god, we were dangerously close to winning. We don't want your points!

lol this defense

Way to set the other team up with a Grade A scoring chance Hampus.
Monahan chips in

Just looking at the box score? Looks like a turnover fest with 4 unassisted goals.
Quote:
Wheels are kind of falling off here bud.

Lots of fatigue mistakes. Oh well.
Quote:
Jesus christ what the Duck just happened?
Quote:
The turnovers haha wow
Quote:
Why the ####, under any circumstance, would you blindly backhand the puck into the slot of your own zone?
Quote:
Lol #### this. Pathetic.

Just ran out of gas and too many mistakes…

3rd period Duck IMPLOSION!!!

Now that's a 3rd period collapse
Eat Bread’s 1st NHL hat trick
Quote:
Hilarious, Calgary player gets hat trick and his teammates douse him with water.
Reminds me of the game where Perry was squirting water at the Avs bench during a Bruce B vs Patrick Roy yelling match.
Ah, those the days when Duck games mattered.
Quote:
12 goals... in last 2 games vs flames lol
Against
Quote:
I see that Eakins has started his own streak versus Calgary.
Quote:
Alright, I’ve about had it with Eakins. Starting to look like Oiler fans were right.
Quote:
Well it was good to see that our two best dmen decided to join the suckage in the third and help cause goals against.
I actually thought we had this one. That third period sucked.
Quote:
ya probably should have been more. lot of turnovers in the dz tonight
Quote:
Well they did have plenty of chances themselves… Not like Flames covered themselves with glory.
Quote:
Both teams sucked on D. Calgary can finish better than Anaheim. These are the results.
Bob needs to fix this. But we Know this already. Still need that Top 4 D addition and a friggin forward who can finish. Henrique who has turned it up should not be the only one leading the charge in goals scored. Even Derek Grant has more goals than most of the top 6 forwards.
But hey at least they scored 4 goals today. I mean granted any other team would have put 10 up on this Calgary team.
Unpleasant Ending
Quote:
It’s not even that the flames are playing well. The ducks have all of a sudden forgot how to play hockey
Quote:
4 goals in one period, #### me.
Quote:
The Flames just 6-0’d you guys and then you let this happen? I’m disappointed.
Quote:
Wtf Anaheim....
Quote:
I know I'm usually all "#### the Ducks"... but I didn't really mean it. Help a brother out!
Quote:
I literally looked down to grab a drink and it was 3-1 look back up and I was like wtf
Quote:
I see Eakins has taught the swarm to another club.
Quote:
How Eakins got another nhl job is beyond me. Which bodes well for us with Anaheim in the same division.
Quote:
WTF happened to the Ducks? I go outside to bbq it’s 3-1 Ducks and they lose 6-4????
Quote:
Eakins left to ride his bike and the Ducks crumbled.
Quote:
I can't wait until we play that joke of a Ducks team again.
Quote:
Flames will lose against Detroit hopefully.
Could the Ducks be anymore pathetic? 3-1 lead and they give up 5 goals in 3rd period. Ducks are never useful for anything.
Quote:
Ugh **** off Flames
Quote:
Ugh Calgary is gonna win.
Quote:
Man **** the Ducks
Quote:
from 3 - 1 up to down 5 - 3 in that short of a span.
Yup, these are the Dallas Eakins ducks.

Great result, so so team. I’m really happy Eat Bread got four points, Backlund had another strong game. Weak links; first line and Hanifin. Can’t decide on Ward, he’s a lot like this team...
Hopefully Edmonton will start falling off now and we can secure a spot going forward.
