Very easy. Quinn and Remenda are the worst. I don't understand how they have jobs at this level. They ruin the enjoyment of watching hockey. I don't complain about media personality, but I just can't stand these two.

A big part of it is how homerish they are towards the Oilers. I hate the Oilers. I hate Edmonton. I hate anybody who sounds pro-Oilers. It gets my blood boiling. I'd rather go do something else than have to put up with Oilers propaganda.

I guess if there wasn't a brain dead roster decision, it wouldn't be Gulutzan's 50/50 brand of quick defending hockey.

Well, at least he didn't dress "Tank Commander" Bartkowski.

Quite frankly Jankowski has been below average more often than not lately. I get it.

:'( Tkachuk's long term health is obviously the most important thing for this franchise, but this time of season (and this game especially) is not the time of season to lose a player like chucky. This is an ill omen.

Lol posted before the Janko revelation. Glenn putting his stamp of approval on his pink slip looks like.

Yeah, Janko's still a young guy. He can play great or be very invisible. He's still developing, so it's not necessarily a bad thing he's out. I don't think I agree with it, but I can at least see where GG is coming from.

On the play-by-play, I'm pretty sure it will be Rick and Kelly. I believe in these situations Sportsnet goes with the home team's play-by-play. I agree that on the off-chance it is Quinn and Remenda I will be watching the game in silence. Those two are just horrible. Worst in the league by far. All my non-Flames fan friends always complain about having to play Edmonton and listen to those bozos.

Bennett-Backlund-Frolik
Hathaway-Shore-Stewart
Brouwer-Stajan-Lazar

That 3rd line makes me question wtf is wrong with me if the professionals think that’s our best option. I get the “crash and bang” third line mentality but I’m more concearend with the crash and bang of pucks not going in the net.

Am I that far off in thinking shore playing on the wing with Jankowski is not a better option then Hathaway or Stewart? What am I missing?

Those bottom 2 lines are going to get destroyed out there. Looking forward to seeing us stuck in our own end for their shifts.

It really shows the lack of depth at forward this team has. One injury completely derails the lineup. Jankowski being a scratch doesnt make sense to me though

They really need to revamp that bottom 6 this summer. The only 3 players I see staying are Brouwer/Lazer/Shore.

The rest I would jettison.

Man, this team had better be active in the market for forwards this summer. This team is THIN.

Might as well throw Ken King in there too.

You can be the guy who exposes his penis to them when they are walking by.

Below average?

He has been flat out awful of late.

I guess I see what the idea is behind the Jankowski/Shore swap?

Jankowski isn't producing at the moment and has lapsed defensively. Shore isn't expected to produce but is defensively sound.

I don't like it because we remove goal scoring potential from the lineup, but thats all it is at the moment. Potential. So I get it.

Still...
