I thought here were three goals Rittich would want back today:

Colin Miller (#3)
Luca Sbisa (#5)
Cody Eakin (#7)

unfortunately that would still have been a 4-3 loss.

There is just something bad about the way this team plays in all three zones.

Don't you lecture the "forum police" on bringing down the forum with passive aggressive posts? Then start off with one yourself?

Maybe you're a part of the problem as impossible as that is for you to comprehend.

I'm unhappy to see that I made the right choice when I turned over to the ladies gold medal game after the 5-3 goal.
The team seemed to completely fold after the called back goal.

The Flames should have fired the coach back in December.

Instead they have been waffling along and are looking like they'll be outside looking in.

Rather telling that this team can only compete when the goalie stands on his head. Seen this before.

I suppose we can put the MVP debate to bed. It's Smith in a land slide.

Treliving in the hot seat. Don't get me wrong, I like him and he's done a lot of good but this #### is on him IMO. Fix this ####ing crap. They have to make the playoffs.

I agree with everyone saying that every loss is a blessing in disguise. Shed the desdweight player, and the entire coaching staff and I’m looking forward to next season! I just hope Tre is realistic enough to realize that this season is over and this group just doesn’t have it.

I really like what we have in Rittich but I think it's pretty clear he's a year or two away from being able to handle a full-time gig.

That said... this was yet another pathetic effort. Is this team ever ready to start a game?

Gulutzan won't be fired now but if they don't make the playoffs I don't see any way they can justify keeping him next season.

Man, they were looking really good when they had the momentum and tied the game at 4. I honestly thought they might pull off a win tonight. But then that horses*** offside challenge completely turned the tide and sadly the Flames couldn't recover.

Rittich was god-awful tonight. Need a much better effort from him on his next start.
