6 games in 10 days, with travel. No excuse, but pretty brutal.

I like your point about special teams.
The Flames are 17th in special teams, the Canes are 25th.
Everything else being equal, you absolutely have to win games when you play a team that has weaker special teams.

3 games out East, back for 2, then out East again for 6 more games.
The looked exhausted to me for sure.
I never doubt their try but they were standing around for parts of the first.

The Flames have zero offensive imagination.
Too many good players to look this bad. That’s on the coaching in my mind.

Yup, it's style of play.
Any fans that think the players have suddenly become talentless, are just bitter

Didn't you point out all last year that the Flames were injury free?
Well your stretch had a full roster and players not adding 4-5 minutes of ice time for big stretches.
They look tired to me. I doubt the team is in worse shape than last year.
Don't think you have much of a point.

Yes and no.
I thought the Flames were better on the three game trip but didn't find the points going 0-3.
On this six gamer they were out played in three of the six, with another two very tight.
But in the end 5 points isn't the end of the world.
Hopefully we see their schedule normalize to some degree now. So many games at home, then so many on the road. Hard to get into a groove.

Flames are the 28th most injured team in the league. Stone and Ritchie ?? Who is over extending 4-5 minutes?
They look tired because they are losing hockey games. They are winning xGF and Corsi and having weak special teams and the 2nd best goalie in most of their games.

And you relentlessly derided those same Flames at the time with ridiculous stats picked out of your a**, as you always do. Get the **** out of here, you disingenuous idiot. Why does this site put up with garbage that brings the overall quality down?

Kylington out every second of the season.
Stone missed ten games
Tanev missed five
that caused somewhat of a minute elevation for the big three, no?
Huberdeau was out up front
They've been injured, sorry it's an excuse that works both ways!

Players do not get tired in a contract year.
Last year contract years for 9
Gaudreau, Tkachuk, Mangiapane, Ritchie, Lewis, Gudbrandson, Zaradov, Kylington, Stone
This year: Lucic, Lewis Ritchie, Stone, Mackey.
Next year a lot of contract years so team will have critical mass of motivated tireless players.

So just ignore my reply then?
Gotcha.
Should I respond with the cost of groceries at my local Safeway?
