Well, I hope the SELL! crowd is happy.
Terrible hockey the past few games and very little to look forward to in the near future. Maybe the odd win here and there, but the last three have been grotesque. (The complete non-calls didn't help, though they didn't hurt either.)
Vladar was not good. Still can't recompose himself after a poor play. He has the odd outstanding game and then craps the bed in the next ones.
Oh well...someone wanted this. Depressing.

The numbers don't lie. He has been bad.
We didn't lose this game because of him and he even had a very strong first but he can't be consistent for 60 minutes.

JFC, WTF?!? Why don't the Flames just bring up the whole goddamn Wranglers and call them the Flames? What an effin stupid post! Seriously!

It's clear to anyone watching that he has been bad.

Did the Flames think this was this a Jeopardy challenge?
Ooh! Let me guess!

Your algorithm is failing you. COL had an expected goal total of a lot more than 3.
MacKinnon alone has an expected goal total of 4. Every game.

How valuable is moving three spots up in the top 10 historically? Imagine it’s at least a second round pick
Plus our picks move up three spots in every round. 3 spots up in the early second round is valuable as well

Just another unrelated question. When are the season ticket renewals due?

Can't wait for another "save the Flames" ticket drive.

Ha ha ok
And I admit I’m wondering how this city will handle even 3 to 5 years of a rebuild
It wasn’t too long ago that the press level seats were tarped off

If Flames scored 5 goals I would blame Vladar for the loss. For me he let in 1 weaker goal, but other goals are not so weak.

You don’t stop the Avs by gutting your team and dressing a second pairing, a third pairing and waiver wire pickups
Just stop
That stat does not factor in defensive play or shot placement
I can’t dignify any further
You’re embarrassing yourself

Vladar had 5th worst goals saved above average for any goalie with minimum 12 games.
He also has 4th worst expected save percentage in entire league.
Are people actually defending him? Not just about tonight but even last season he had similiar numbers.

Yup
This is the peril of the tank. String a bunch of these together and you’ve got a long term problem that isn’t solved by some 18 year old you picked 3rd overall.

Yeah, like what would you like to have seen?
Sign the players that didnt want to sign?
What other option was there, really?

Always with the drama
Flames fans are way smarter than the owner gives them credit for. They know they need a rebuild and did a great job supporting the last one
If renewals are down it’s because the fans are tired of mediocrity and don’t see a bright future with this strategy
