If this #### looks the exact same by the end of Game 5 and it takes us until Game 10 to even get close to .500, then we got some major issues.
Nope, Hartley didn't get a camp at all after the lockout ended and that's on his report card.

It would be nice to see some skating, some rough stuff after whistles, some emotion. Is that too much to ask? Get the crowd into it with something exciting.

Nothing borderline about it.

I hate losing as much as the next guy, but holy #### some of these folks need to be put on suicide watch.

I agree with Cali. This game is boring, boring, boring -- but it's WAY too early. The Flames are WAY outshooting the Sabres. It hasn't been four games. Give it time.

Did you forget last year? This team with Hudler was horrible. At this exact same time.

A healthy dose of pickle power will win the game for the Flames!

6 games MAX

If the team isn't pouring in 7 or 8 goals per game by then I'm sure BT will pull the trigger and go back to the drawing board.

I know it's early in the season.... But this team is boring to watch...lots of shots but mostly right at the goalie.... We need some energy players out there... Only flashes of it right now

Then why are you wasting your time here?

The GT is a good place to vent frustrations.

I think that's just the usual tire fire that is SN AV and presentation.

I kinda like it this way. Highlights with no yabbering, but you can sort of hear the local broadcast, which is OK too.

Regardless of the number of shots, I think it's been a comfortable away game for Buffalo so far. It doesn't feel like they've been in much trouble.
