I think they got cocky and self satisfied after the big win against the Oilers.

Hopefully if that is true they got brought back down to earth playing a real NHL team.

I'm all for cheering, absolutely, but the wave gets in the way of my view of the game. I just disagree with it on principle.

Bring back creative fan chants or something, or booing random players, but the wave is just obstructive and I find it occurs at the weirdest times in the game.

The results speak for themselves. Flames are a bubble playoff team. It’s just a reality. With a middle of the pack team, you never know which flames team will show up on any given night.

Not sure why everyone loves Hanifin so much. Sure, he’s young. Be he doesn’t bring a whole lot. I find him to be rather meh.

I do not think Rick Ball knows what a game in hand means, the flames will not have a game in hand on the Canucks after tonight.

Everything they've done this year shows they're a bubble team...which is really unfortunate. Maybe they'll get in, maybe they won't....but it's pretty likely that they will get a middle of the pack draft pick. Building for the middle from the middle.

If they get in they will be wiped out in 4 games. Time to ship out #13 for a good return. The hype is over like our northern neighbor. Let's be realistic and look beyond the current core

Are those retro jerseys from the young guns era by chance?
