Good Lord.

What a downright horrible opening "ceremony".

30 (frank)ing minutes of this?

Surprised to see Backs on the 2nd. Either way, GFG

That line looks pretty good so far. Frolik is flying.

Oh I know....went to lots of poopty Flames games....the only good part of the pre-game is when Johnny Gudreau skates around warm up with the Flames flag.

As he should be....fatigue probably won't set in until game 8 or 9.

Would hate to see possession % after that period

I hope you mean due to contract status, not player preference.

Well yeah. If they had traded for Stamkos, they lose the trade unless they win the cup this year.

The regression has begun

Ferland right?
He dummied that female dog Dorsett, that's better then winning the game

Not going to lie, Baertschi looks great tonight.

Next best thing to a win, I'll agree with that haha

God damn flames scraps on their second line, and he has looked good

I'd like to see Backund and Bouma shift down to the 3rd and Ferland/Bennett to the 2nd. Only the top line looks right at this point.

I'm ok with this asskicking. Make sure they play with fire for the rest of the season instead of crap like tonight because writers fawned over em.

Looks like the oilers defense out there

Bouma should not be on the second line. Jooris didn't look good tonight. They need to figure out the goalie situation. The extra forward in the stands keeps the players fighting for their jobs.

Tonight wasn't on Ramo. Atrocious defensive play, he maybe let in one bad goal (the 5th). I still want Hiller gone.

Bouma shouldn't be on the 2nd. Ferland really shouldn't either but I'll take it for now. Eventually free up the extra forward spot, roll Poirier and sit Jooris or Bollig for a few and see how it motivates.

We'll see what Bob does with Ramo,he's not too nice to them. My thoughts on Bouma are sell high. He had a good year last year I don't see him repeating. I'm on the fence with Ferland. One side of me says he could be a difference maker power forward, the other side says he's a ticking time bomb.

So, ah, how's it going guys!
Just got back from Calgary, ate some steak at hy's, had a good time. Haven't seen the game yet, it's pvred so I'll watch it later.

Well good luck

Giordano was a -3 last night, but his Corsi was fantastic!

That's the most important thing.
