Flames lose to the Blackhawks 5-1
Burn the game tape because there’s nothing to salvage from it. Tonight is the biggest game of the season, it’s a four pointer on the second half of a back to back, after travel, against the division leaders.

We’re in for a rough time against Seattle
Excuse me while I prepare my bleach smoothie
This is a game we should, on paper, have won. The fact that we didn’t is telling. I’ll be honest and say I don’t hold much hope for the rest of the season, and potentially for the next few years. While I think it’s a shame that Kylington is gone and Tanev gets hurt, it strikes me that a team that was touted as having ‘incredible defence’ seems to have none. The predicted meshing of our top line is, still, something that is coming despite them playing together for 5 months. Is more time really the answer?
Maybe this comment will age like milk. I’d be happy if it did. I have no idea what that is but I don’t think shuffling lines is the answer. I’m concerned that we are in for a long period of being a shitty ‘underperforming’ team that is built to make and then exit the first round of the playoffs.
Good thing I picked Markstrom as the third overall goalie in fantasy.
Sad to have stuck through the entire game instead of doing something productive, but it could’ve been worse – was thinking of getting tickets to go to the game last minute but ultimately stayed home. My condolences to all who did attend last night and paid for that shitshow of a performance
I think we need to remember the NHL is a well balanced league. The worst team can beat the best team because they are still a professional hockey team.
Yeah, the flames played like shit last night. Something seemed off. Let’s see how they are tonight against Seattle 🤞🏼
This team isn’t making the playoffs… we all need to be honest with ourselves..
The teams ahead are widening the gap and some STILL have games in hand..
Which would mean we need a minor miracle the rest of the way..: and I don’t see that happening..
The best part of all this is we’re stuck with long term contracts for 30+ year olds and we’ll be in mediocre no mans land for the next 3+ years!
YAH BABY!!
Why does this team have to be so depressing
Luke Philp got his first NHL point. Good for him
Please play Gilbert or Desimone. I can’t watch another second of Mackey out there
