This team is horribly built.

It exists to torment its fanbase now. I truly believe that.

The combination of the flames trajectory and the oilers trajectory right now is such a kick in the groin. Flames playing terrible? Fine. Those losers on a record setting heater? No good.

Might as well start the liquidation if you get close to your asking price, Conny. Most of the players are waiting for it anyway. So disappointed in Lindy. Giving about 25% most nights.

Skated into the boards to make a hit and went in feet first and twisted his ankle. Non weight bearing. Didn’t look good

Hubercrap?

Looked like a blown achilles. Caught his skate on the boards. Not good.

No way the Flames are as bad as the Blue Jackets, they just aren't. Lost both games in regulation.

Almost the same team with way worse goaltending had 93 points last year. Coaching matters.

I don't get the PP. Rasmus almost never shoots, so that option doesn't worry other teams. He likes to just keep passing it around. Then Coronato was on the right side, so he gets the puck sometimes down towards the corner and can't get his shot off. Why not have him on the left side and Sharky on the right side so they can one-time in those spots on their off-wing? And if it's struggling like it is, why not just keep it simple and park someone in front and just get shots off and look for rebounds?

Not enough talent on the team to try to be fancy on the PP. Gotta be way more simple.

Allstar Lindholm is going to the all star game

Conroy should remind everyone of that

Maybe some fool will buy

He will bring back a solid package but he has definitely tanked his value abit.

I still expect a late 1st+2nd worth of value but not much more.

Ya, on pace for 50+ points, 56% in the face off dot… useless something something.

If there's a player in this league I'd love to see hoist the cup, it's Chris Tanev.
Then we can re sign him as captain rebuild mentor.

I've heard Tanev is building a house in Calgary.

But honeslty it would benefit both sides to trade him now for a playoff run, and then just sign him again in the offseason.

Some people still get upset when the Flames lose?

If you're expecting them to win with this roster you are kind of setting yourself up for disappointment haha

Whatever floats your boat though I guess

Wins are fun, but we're at a stage where losses are expected.

This team is flat out garbage. Today was a completely pathetic effort against a crap team. 1-4 on this home stand where they had to go at least 4-2, and probably 5-1.

Sell absolutely everyone (except for some of the kids) for anything.

What a joke of a year.
