While I want to panic and blow this thing up because I'm frustrated as hell, it does look like a totally different game style than what we've seen the past few years. I think we should give GG the benefit of the doubt that he didn't get a full team for training camp and pre-season. It's really been a week since he has had the full team.
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.

We're down 2-1 in a game, while not super exciting, is a helluva lot better than the tire fires against Edmonton. We've controlled most of the play, put a lot more pucks on net, and had some bad luck go against us.
Honestly, this entire board is borderline unreadable these days.
Nothing borderline about it.
Chicken littles running around everywhere.
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.

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
