GDT: Flames crap the bed on Al MacInnis night, losing 3-1 to the Blues

[CalgaryFlames1240]

So when Moss, Backlund and Stempniak come back our forwards are like this

Glenny-Jokinen-Iggy
Tanguay-Cammy-Comeau
Stempniak-Backlund-Moss
Jackman-Stajan-Kostopoulous

with Bouma, Horak and Desbiens being sent down.

And the healthy D looking like

J-Bo-Butler
Gio-Hannan
Sarich-Brodie

and Smith and Babchuk scratched.

I'm not so sure Feaster should have just sat back. Why not get some assets for the people you aren't using? At least motivate the players showing that it could just as easily be them.

Man I sure hope Feaster makes some moves at the draft because where we are heading right now is missing the playoffs by 1 or 2 spots while getting a middle of the round 1st and not really getting any better.

i hope we get blown out, long time coming.. a blowout will really er.. i dont know what a blowout will do. probly nothing.

You would think Babchuk would have gotten a game with our PP being absolute **** the last two weeks.

Thought the same about the loss to Edmonton, but nope.

[AimForTopCheddar]

....Flames games are just ...to hard to watch nowadays :/ We always sit on a lead, then we wait till we're behind the 8ball before we make a 10% effort to go into OT...

Yeah, make Sarich or Hannan sit out a couple games. Also I think we should shake up the lines a bit too. Stajan has been pretty good recently I think it's about time to give him some consistent top 9 minutes.

[Kurse*]

comeau. about time you played with some intensity.. way to go

[DouglasQuaid]

Hey look, someone on the ice actually cares.

[Kurse*]

hahahah great hit

[CalgaryFlames1240]

Waiting for Stajan to break out short handed and snipe one...

[Kurse*]

Babchuk is a terrible defenseman....... MacInnis like shot though.

[Kurse*]

good kill flames

A little too late to do anything.

[CalgaryFlames1240]

Who knows. Maybe the Flames will be on the other side of the comeback toinght...

[Xelstyle]

Boom. Just boom.

[Kurse*]

if we want momentum.. take the first line off the ice

[tmurfin]

3 shots. Nice, way to prove you guys did belong together. **** sakes. I cant stand this anymore

[CalgaryFlames1240]

3 shots in the 2nd. For a team who was emphasizing shooting.

Because all our D man have been rocks the last few games, he was signed to bring offense on the PP but has been sitting in the box. IF that was the plan for him why was he not traded at the deadline, definitely could have gotten something for him.

[Svensational]

Same old story. We can"t ****ING SCORE. Nothing new, last 3 seasons have been exactly the same. Blow this team up this summer.


Baertschi, Backlund, Cammy, Glenx, Jones, Jackman, Moss, Reinhart, Holland.



Gio, Smith, Brodie, Jbouw


Irving, Ramo.


Some of you may say keeping this AHL core is gonna be horrible, but at this point our top line is ****ing ridiculous. Iginla as much as I love him is so slow out there and doesn't even try, just loses the puck.

Thank You Feaster for sitting back today, we have showed tonight that we dont need scoring help or defensive help

[Kurse*]

Al MachInnis must be holding his face with shame, what a once great team has become. No leaders and the pluggers dont scare anyone.

With the values of players today standing pat was the right thing to do.

Glad we didn't overpay for a rental.
