    and FWIW, Friedman said today he believes Calgary is on Bobrovsky's No trade list. 

     

     

    That's so awesome that Rittich is getting the start tomorrow. I think the Flames would have had to give up too much to get Bobrovsky anyways:o So I guess keep Rittich as starter until he falters?

    He's yet to build a contender so he currently has a failing grade.

    Throwing picks for the Hams is fine if that's where you are as a team.

    But we weren't there so it turns into more filler in a wall full of holes.

    Why he didn't address the forward ranks earlier is beyond me. It was evident to EVERYONE that there wasn't enough skill here.

    He turned goaltending into a fiasco to the point BH is telling the media he's NOT carrying 3 goalies. It was obviously out of his hands.

    I think what will lead to his demise is he's too cerebral and too tied to known commodities.

    What I mean by that, is he overthinks solutions and the latest example of hiring a coach and bringing 3 of his players in (so far).

    Quite honestly, he has me scratching my head.

    We missed the playoffs last year because that isn't a playoff roster. Just consider how many games Smith won. If not for that, the Isles would have gotten one helluva pick.

    Time to stop glorifying what has actually been failings to the point he's now repairing his earlier paintings.

    He did a lot this summer, but we are definitely NOT automatically better, we only SHOULD be.

    If last year taught us anything, we just weren't a good team.

    Well the Flames made the playoffs before last season because the Flames have/had talent. I blame last season to Glen Gulutzan because he seemed to lose the Flames players, had a crappy defensive system and NEVER took a timeout when needed. Sure Brad Treliving made some mistakes but he did try to make the team better with some players that did not work out like Raymond, Bouma and Brouwer. I don't think he could have made the trade for Lindholm and Hanafin sooner because maybe the Flames recently got sick of Hamilton's behavior.

    I think if the Flames make the playoffs AND Treliving signs or trades for a starting goaltender after this season he will keep his job. For the most part I think he has done a good job and I think that Bill Peters will make the Flames players accountable. Bill's system is pretty good and I think it compliments the Flames. We will see.

    Sam Bennett is a player that has been inconsistent especially for a 4th overall pick. I think he should be traded but I don't know for what exactly. Sure he has potential but I think he would play better for another team. Will he have a break out season with the Calgary Flames or should the Flames deal him??  What do y'all think the Calgary Flames should do with Bennett??
