cross16 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Pretty familiar script. Flames play solid but they are just not good enough and don’t have the top end talent you need to win games like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LouCifer Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 I thought the flames played well. Team game looks really good. A lucky bounce was the difference. McJesus and Dr. Drai held pointless. Can’t ask for more than that. The evidence is there that we played well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manu12 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Unfortunately crosser put it pretty well, we put up a good fight but lacked the game changer. Maybe not the most popular opinion, but this game as well as the season, shows me that Lindholm should be dealt asap. Guys have a good night/day, I seriously need some sleep.

McJesus and Dr. Drai held pointless. Can’t ask for more than that. The evidence is there that we played well. A .935 SA% should win you a game, but we scored but one. It's not like Skinner saves the day for them or the D was any good. Dump and chase against a fast team. Top line -3 each, -2 against 3rd and 4th line. Without Pospisil, the Kadri line just didn't click. Maybe a few games helps or maybe you need to play your top scorer with them. The top line can't generate scoring unless Lindholm is playing decent. But anyway, we have to move on from this version of the team. Just trading Lindholm isn't going to do enough. If Tanev and Hanifin have value, include them as well. But, FFS, you can't keep dressing Oesterle. He's not the only problem, but he's been on the ice for goals against in every loss this month. We score so few to give up ones with a lousy 3rd pairing.

The_People1 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 What a clutch loss. Two more Ls in a row would greatly help the next 3-5 years. Can't give management any playoff ideas right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
