Oh you not liking star wars isn't the egregious part for me as someone who isn't the biggest fan myself.

It's saying you'd rather watch twilight. I mean, to laugh at maybe?

I'd rather not watch either.

This is clearly a "core" worth committing to.

Conroy might be worse than Feaster, if such a thing was even possible

Whoa. Not ready to say that.

 

[Boomstick]

Macklin Celebrini. He's supposed to be pretty good but we won't win the lottery.

Oilers will win the lottery and pick number 1. They're due.

Top paring D Hanifin...

Sad part is... It's true. I could actually see it. Oilers are that special.

Nice saves by Marky

 

[Lukin1978]

Summer of Brad really f***ed this team for years

 

[Felidae]

Markstrom with some big saves.

3rd time hes dealt with a blues player all alone

 

[Lunatik]

We go down a couple goals and the usual suspects arrive to post and "support" the team

Well I'm out.

Yeah great defense. Two prime chances

Markstrom is the one bright spot this season. And that's with a couple suspect goals. The majority of the time he's our best player. I'm glad he's looking better than the tyre fire of last season... But where's our bloody top end talent. Help this man. Score.

Stick around dude, we're going to come back and win this thing.

 

[DFF]

Kadri is just going to play with himself now

We need a intestinal fortitude come back win. Let's go!!

 

[joescores]

Just seen Caufield scoring a nice goal in OT, we don't have these kind of players on our team- that's why we are losing.

I'm still going to watch, just not going to participate here because too many posters only come around when we're losing and make it unbearable to read.

Guy has literally been on the job for like 6 months and inherited one of if not the biggest messes in the NHL, give your head a shake. He isn't the one who signed all these boat anchor contracts that have gimped this franchise for the next 5+ years.

There's no sign of anyone coming close to 30 goals this year. I hope I'm wrong, but we'll see. We may just have to wait another year or two for Coronato to come into his own and become the threat we need.

I've blocked a few posters from the general threads. Heavy hitters. It's not a bad option!

Markstrom is much better than his current .897sv% this season imo

A lot of the goals haven't been his fault. Or maybe that's just me trying to find something positive lol.

No, you're right. I see a goalie making more solid saves than last year. By a good margin. He has made way more 10-bell this season so far. He's not getting support by the team.

I think our problem is and I'm guilty of it too. We're such a passionate fan base. We freaking love our Calgary Flames, and it's frustrating to watch them play under their potential. This team should be good. Unfortunately, even when the puck is on our stick it seems to bounce off and be a turn over. It's shocking to me how there hasn't been any chemistry so far.
I have a Huberdeau jersey, I'm cheering for this dude like I have with all of my past favorites, but it's just head scratching how we're not competing to win.
These guys need to come out strong, they need to fight back to win these tight games.
I don't speak on behalf of everyone here, but I love my Flames, but when I get frustrated, I get upset.
Anyways dude, I get it. If you don't post again tonight enjoy the game, and keep on cheering. I definitely will.

 

[deleted user]

Boom, yeah I feel that way. I want us and expect us to compete every night. Looking at our roster on paper, I demand more.. and it gets so deflating at times. I bloody well want a game breaker on this team again.

No but he is the one desperate to re-sign Hanifin and Lindholm.

And no doubt this math will be incredibly hard to understand but if the team is this bad with Lindholm @ 4.85M and Hanifin @ 4.95M, what exactly are they going to be when those two they're making 9M+ and 7M+ respectively?
