cross16 Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 Just not good enough at this point in the season. You have any hopes of being a playoff contender you had to lock this game down. Goaltending not good enough and came out way too conservative in the 3rd.

cross16 Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 Flames had 1 shot in the 3rd period. That’s it. Sat back, dumped it in and then acted surprised when Vegas came at them with speed. just an awfully frustrating game plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Repeat whole period. There was no attempt to enter the offensive zone to generate anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I would say that the lack of any offense in the 3rd had more to do with the loss. The Flames keep the streak alive. No wins in Vegas yet. Ever. It was a scheduled loss, but still stings when you have a 3-1 lead with 20 left. Maybe the coach will have some words of brilliance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travel_dude Posted February 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 In the month of February, we are 3-3-3. Couldn't draw it out to be more futile strings of onezies.

conundrumed Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 Wings and Flames games b2b provided 5 periods of positivity. Then the Flames just had to play that stupid MacTavish shell game in the 3rd. Congrats Sutter, you're MacTavish. That "protect the lead" fell out about 10 years ago. That wildcard spot is fading fast All of the excuses are played out. There's really nothing left to do. There's nothing UFA-pending of any value, there's no point in making a trade and throwing away picks. Officially out of options. The writing has been on the wall ever since the Wings game in Calgary. 2 teams fighting for their playoff lives and the Flames had no fight. Painful. Tired of the excuses. Start finding 25 and under players or call them up. We're too old and set in our ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Start finding 25 and under players or call them up. We're too old and set in our ways. Closer to being overtaken by Preds for the first non-WC spot than overtaking the Kraken or Kings. The coach's stubborness is even ruining any chance of improving the roster. Trade Lewis and Ritchie, who might have some value. Then we still have the anchor Lucic. And he would still play regardless of who we brought up. Make a trade to improve the team, we still get Lucic out there 13 minutes. It seems to me that we play a good type of game until we get a lead. Then it's either a signal to protect or the players start worrtying about making mistakes. The game completely changes in front of our eyes. I lean towards the first. Backwards 2-1, 3-2 lead coach mindset. We dominated the other team. The refs decided to start evening up the calls, earned or not. We still had the lead. Then safe hockey. Don't take the chance on scoring, just get rid of it. At this point, I would prefer to see us lose 6-5 than giving up late goals and OTL due to headscratcher playbook. Score a goal, throw out the 4th line. End of a PP, throw out the 4th line. Last minute of play, throw out the 4th line. Duh. We don't have the Hathaway line out there buddy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
