Didn't the Leafs torch their roster to draft Marner and Matthews?

Teams trade ther players, but at a fie sale teams should get playe5s at 10 cents on the dollar. Teams want value

What has the NHL done to halt the emotion in Calgary-Edmonton games?

Do they truly think this is better for the league after the exciting games of last season... highly disappointing. Another bust. In a blowout game we should have seen something.

Which to me... is what the Leafs did with Kessel and Phaneuf... traded for very little value just to tank.

these games have a completely different complexion when there's no fans in the seats.

They have to play each other another 5 (or 7?) more times... so I doubt either team wants a bloodbath.

This game is eating him alive lol. He is a fake Oilers fan

It would actually be nice if one of the teams I financially support stopped being a complete joke

The Flames tried, but the Oilers just laughed at after-the-whistle stuff and scored on the PPs.

No, that is not true, but if the flames want a fire sale, they can have one.

Nurse with 64 minutes played in the last 2 games. I am glad Ken Holland listened to me and not the many Oilers unfaithful saying he should be traded. .

I mean what value did they get from those two? A whole pile of junk (late 1st in KK , etc) and another late 1st that was trade for Freddie. Kessel would go to win two cups and Phaneuf was still okay but vastly overpaid.

2016-Feb-09 Traded from Toronto Maple Leafs with Cody Donaghey, Casey Bailey, Ryan Rupert and Matt Frattin to Ottawa Senators for Tobias Lindberg, Jared Cowen, Colin Greening, Milan Michalek and round 2 pick in the 2017 draft (Eemeli Rasanen)

2015-Jul-01 Traded from Toronto Maple Leafs with Tyler Biggs, Tim Erixon and conditional round 2 pick in the 2016 draft (Kasper Bjorkqvist) to Pittsburgh Penguins for Kasperi Kapanen, Scott Harrington, Nick Spaling, round 1 pick in the 2016 draft (Sam Steel) and round 3 pick in the 2016 draft (J.D. Greenway)

It started right off the opening faceoff with Yamo laughing at Tkachuk.

The Flames tried to rile them up a handful of times, but they literally laughed at them haha.

Well, if you want to call it that fine. It is still unusual. Calgary should try to get value for their players in my opinion.

Just watched the extended highlights of the Flames-Oilers games.

Goals 1 and 2 were all bad D and not on Markstrom. I don’t know how you can blame the goalie for Chiasson’s goal nor Nuge left wide open. Like I’ve said in other threads, the NHL is watered down with AHLers and Gawdin or Valimaki missed coverage.
Goal 3(McDavid’s deflection) was nobody’s fault as those plays happen.
Goal 4,5,6 could have been stopped but all featured blown coverage or giving McDavid a partial breakaway.
Goal 7 was both poor D and bad goaltending (or just a snipe from Archibald).

More so the Oilers just didn’t get involved in what the flames were trying to do.

Emotion for the Oilers is the skill taking the game over, see Mcdavid last night, been awhile since I’ve seen him that driven, he was on another planet. Emotion for the Flames is Tkachuk and others trying to play on the edge of the line or over it, and they started taking penalties because they couldn’t bait Edmonton to join.

The flames were hardly playing hockey till it was to late, just running around for the most part to start the game.

The North division games are all essentially all star games, weak defence with high end offense. It’s a one trick division

Oh look the. Rosen record spins again

They were going for hits and trying to agitate and forgot about the score board. The flames fired muffins at kosko from low % percentage. The oilers made every shot look dangerous and flat out out skilled them.
