Flames beat the Jets and the Oilers get spanked, good night for hockey! lol. Markstrom played amazing last night, he is what the Oilers need, Campbell looked brutal!
And Skinner didn't look much better in the next game, giving up 4 goals on 20 shots.Flames beat the Jets and the Oilers get spanked, good night for hockey! lol. Markstrom played amazing last night, he is what the Oilers need, Campbell looked brutal!
Don't worry, a new arena with even more expensive tickets/concessions will solve this trend.The Attendance at the dome has been declining sharply since Gaudreau and Tkachuk left. The Home opener attendance vs the Jets on the 11th was only 17,414.
Yep, I think it's that time for sure. I felt that way after last season, but was willing to give it another season to see how things went, but things are worse than before. Basically it feels like any chance of a surprise comeback season are done.I'm usually a wait and see kinda guy, 10-15 games before I get critical. This team is going nowhere, 100% time to blow it up and start over. Flames should hold off on all contract talks and have a fire sale at the trade deadline. Such a heartless and uninspired group, that was a brutal game to watch.
The worst part is even if you want change, the UFAs haven't been the problem, the problem is the guys who are here for awhile. Kadri looks fat and happy after getting his cup and getting paid. He does engage and you could see on the broadcast last night him talking to Coronato, but he was best when he burned and when he had an enemy. Huberdeau caught lightning in a bottle the season before the trade and Florida traded the Flames the equivalent of magic beans.Yep, I think it's that time for sure.
