Welcome to Calgary Flames hockey.

Kinda reminds me of Oiler hockey past.

So let's talk about draft... is this a good year to draft high... any generational talent available

Loads of quality D. Nothing generational though.

Nope! not at all... it must be very distant in memories

It definitely seems like there’s something wrong in this organization from the top down. I’ve liked more of Tre’s moves than most but I’m starting to think we need to clear house as a lack of identity is on everyone.

I’ve always thought gio was an excellent leader but it appears this room is split into different factions and it shows on the ice.

I’m torn on which direction this team should go at this point. Signs are pointing towards us probably blowing it up but it’s hard not to want to keep going for it when we finally have an elite goalie and guys like lindholm & andersson are on absolute steals of a contract. So hopefully clearing house will fix the issue before it comes to that

Yeah frustrating to watch and it’s not just the coach. It’s like the team doesn’t like each other... unemotional no fight game last night. Ugh so this is how the oilers fans have been feeling for the last 12 or so years

Bring back the purple gatoraid! It’s the only thing that’s going to change this.

Only watched the 2nd period and thought the game was pretty even, then the internet turned Mexican and couldn’t see the 3rd.

Out of 17 games played so far the Flames have scored first only in 5 of the games. That is pretty embarassing that they can't get ready to start a game. They are overpaid (frank)ing Richards.

Well you didn’t miss much! And boo hoo! You’re emborracharse beber cervaza while I slug concrete in -6

At which point does Calgary hold on to a garbage coach just because they've gone through so many other coaches. Is that the point we are at? Sounds like fire the GM time...

Actually don’t mind the moves tre has done thought Simon was going to be better!! Levo is fine on the fourth. The other two well they are garage. And his drafting and player signings are good. But his biggest mistake is definitely ward. He seems at times overwhelmed. Then he panics.
And makes hasty bad decisions. 9 times out of 10 the team take on the personality of your coaches. A change needs to happen. Before the season is lost

My point is because they've run through so many coaches, can they fire him before Treliving? I say yes, but I'm not so sure what the thought process is between management and the owners. I also like some of what Tre has done—especially in terms of trades—but the coaches he's hired and fired...I'd rather go back to Hartley than see Ward coach another game, Gulutzan, even!

Totally agree. There was 2 minutes left in the game they’re down a goal and ward puts out froese lucic and Dube. And tanev on the point. Like really? Dube agree tanev maybe. But put the big guns out there and leave them out there if they need a break then take a time out. My god they are pro athletes they have stamina

I agree with you 100%. It is frustrating watching Ward's decisions. I don't see any changes until the season is over, but I wouldn't be surprised if Tre and Ward are both gone. Does anyone know the term on Ward's contract, is it just a one year deal?

There are dozens of headscratchers piling up over the past 2 weeks. The major knock on Tre is that he had a golden opportunity to get a real coach after the Peters fiasco gave him a free out, but no, go with an unproven guy who probably should've never stepped out of an assistant role.

Looks like Gawdin and Robinson are drawing in tonight. Froese and Ritchie out. Shame, I thought Ritchie brought some much needed energy.

Shut your pie-hole. I'm trying to make relevant points about a hockey team I've been cheering for religiously since the mid-eighties. Add to the conversation or maybe even attempt to engage in a debate, but please keep your infantile comments to yourself. No need to be disrespectful to a person, just because you disagree with them. Whipper...I don't give a crap how famous you think you are on HB, your stupidity has been well established around these parts.

You must have been abused as a child.

I expected Flames to lose today... let's see if they can come back, but putting themselves behind 2 goals early on is not good.
