Although I could have put up a .950 in the last few games, the way the Flames have been playing D. They have given Markstrom very little in the way of challenges
Except for that save of the week against Toronto, am I rite?

Way to go!

Piss away 5 years of a top 4 pick so you can get 2 seconds.

(Also the sweet contract years of 13 and 23)

Wizardry at work

Lol

Where he was drafted is now irrelevant is my point. You said they turned a 4th overall into 2nds.

Disagree, they turned a disgruntled player that wasn't working out in to two 2nds. 90% of CPers and the vast majority of the hockey world thought it was a good deal for the Flames (and maybe for everyone involved)

Still early, but I hope Bennett continues to do well and flourishes in the role that some of us have always said was denied him in Calgary. I hope that this would also cause the organization to do some reflection on why he didn't work out here, and how their share of the blame might be part of the reason why the Flames are where they are

What role was he denied in Calgary? Playing goal and D? Because he played everywhere else

Reading some of the posts after those first 2 games and the correlation some were making to the Bennett trade(not you), I was expecting Calgary to go undefeated the rest of the season.

Should have played well enough to displace Monahan, Lindholm, Backlund and Ryan.

Yeah, too bad the Wizard couldn’t figure out how to have both Sam Bennett and a NHL coach at the same time.

Something had to give

Lol

I said share of the blame. Will be interesting to see how Monahan and Bennett each do from here on out

This is a big thing that pisses me off. The coaching hires are indefensible.

Not only do I believe they screwed things up with Bennett - but I think they screwed up multiple other players. Monahan is an absolute liability at this stage. He’s ineffective on 195 feet of the ice. Tkachuk came into the league a bull, and now he’s...whatever the hell he is.

Hiring Gulutzan and Peters was a disaster. Hiring Ward though? That’s next level incompetence.

I wish Sutter would have been hired last off-season. I feel like so much would be different today. It’s pretty damning to hear Darryl talk about the fact that he’s having to work at getting this team to play the style of hockey that the rest of the league is playing rather than their own “style”.

Absolutely awful hires. All three of them.
