I'd wear it now, Just so everyone knows for sure my state of displeasure, looks like for yet another year

Sometimes it changes the out come of a game but its done, Every game you watch and see questionalbe penaltys will now make you wonder. Pretty sad thing and for a Ref to say it like that, it must be a common practice not just him.

SELLERS, Thats who they are.

I think they are doing as well as they can with what they have, its just the reality of it. They are not all of a sudden start beating teams on a regular basis and going to the top of the standings. The team needs change in terms of players coming in and players going out. There is no steady offensive threat, hard time scoring and thats been for at least 2 years. All top teams have a number one guy and if you ask people who is the number one on these teams you will hear the name everytime. The Flames do not have a number 1 guy, they have @ 3 guys that can score once every 5 games. This is fine if the team wants to stay in the middle of the league as they have for years.

Middle of the pack team, playing like a middle of the pack team. Can't wait for Sutter to evaluate the team and make changes come closer to the end of the time of hope.

Agree 100% I was hoping for that line, those other two will get less cheap shots maybe play better with the protection

I think they just cannot do any worse bringing guys up,, I almost lost my mind with the Lomberg experiment. Lots of good talent on the team now, just need to give them a chance to play.

Yes I would say the same, its just too late for a guy to come in and make them winners, I believe he will change some things for sure and the style of play but I think his major concerns will be planning for next year, who is getting the axe and who can he bring in to fit in his style of team. This is just a time for him to evaulate the team and players plus getting his own team system in place.

I agree, I say it all the time, when have you ever seen a flames player planted in front of the net? Rarely. You very seldom see a couple of them in there, even on the power play, rarely a flame in front of the net causing havoc,, easy saves for the opposition goalie.

I thought they had lots of nice chances. I believe it was like 20 shots on net in the first period and some decent chances. Oh and the way the team played earlier in the week yes I agree but I don't even want to think about that train wreck.

Still soft ice cream eaters who can't score.

Bye Bye....

They should have picke up Tinordi before boston jumped on him

Not going to see Sutters effect until next year. Trades and deals will be made once he assesses the team.

Its just too bad Robinson doesn't hit and can't fight his way out of a paper bag.

I agree totally, but what does it take for someone upstairs to get off their Hash Rate and start to sort some things out. I really don't know what they are waiting for, the wheels have fallen off. Plus I think Ward should be able to tell the fans why he is benching Bennett.

They would be a pretty decent AHL team, well maybe.

Mix those lines up, that will work lol. When you have the same ingrediants in a bowl doesn't matter how you mix it you will get the same outcome. Magic is not gonna happen here.

NO not Torts he totally suks as a coach, just look at the teams he has messed up in the last 4 years, besides the reality is a coach change is not going to bring this team to a play off contender, they need to make team changes and not just one. its been a long time comming.

I feel bad for Sam, I just can't see why Ward is singling him out. I see he has mixed all the lines again. You can stir crap all day and its still crap.

I agree and would love to see an AHL team play an NHL team. Some of those NHL players are getting big bucks for nothing or one season they played well

Like i said before he is getting too old, trade him while you can get something for him,, business decision not like the flames always do, lets keep him until he retires here. He is on a steep slide. too old period.

Well they are not heavy or grinders, but for sure the defense falls back don't want the opposition to have to shoot from too far out. Forecheck lol wtf is that.

Very good point. I think Sutter did but good point. I'm just scared they will bring in Torts and make it even worse.

You can put lipstick on a Pig and you all know the results. On their best day they are a mid range team. Take away the HYPE and HOPE and WHAT IF'S and its hard to disagree you get what you get. A BELOW AVERAGE TEAM PLAYING LIKE A BELOW AVERAGE TEAM BECAUSE THATS WHO THEY ARE.
