Yeah they definitely deserved a better fate. Gonna need more miracle whip for a playoff run. Thing is there's a shortage.

Can't be too mad at the loss. Bad luck. Sweep the Habs next week and make things interesting again.

It always happens...when I team hits multiple posts in a game, they always lose.

Sorry, thought that was obvious.

Better this way, getting a lower draft pick and being first round fodder is what got the team in this mess

Do you prefer him over Tanev or Markstrom?

Unfortunate result as the Flames looked pretty dominant for most of the game. Those 3 posts there really hurt.

Not impossible still, and the way the team has played these past 4 games gives me some hope still.

I’ve liked his play of late but with how the ice time was distributed you would think Mangiapane-Monahan-Dube was the 3rd line.

Really too bad but I'm not that disheartened. They can play this style and had lots of scoring chances.

Next 4 games are must wins, you've gotta think now.

If these idiots would have played like this all season, then losses like this when they were the better team wouldn't be so crucial and painful.

Play better sooner.

The effort was there. In all three periods. But over the course of the season we should have done so much better to absorb the effect of being #### outta luck tonight.

Can they just tank already??? They aren't making it in and by some miracle of Jeebuz if they did make it in, they would get knocked out in 4 games. Team isn't good enough, do what is right for the team already.

Once it was tied in the third, Flames generated nothing. Yes they were unlucky in the second but the game was still there for the taking.

Reminded me of the Anaheim series with GG as coach. Unlucky to keep giving up bad goals, but when each of the games were on the line, they generated zilch.

5 on 5 offense remains the achilles heel for this team.

Oh and paging Matthew Tkachuk.

The Flames were very unlucky to lose.

But teams win all the time when they get outplayed.

When the margin for a Flames loss is very thin, it’s not shocking that something like this occurs.

The effort was there, which makes it hard to take.

#### the tank.

I want to see more of this type of effort. Right to the end of the season.

Besides, the draft this year is the biggest crap shoot of all time.
