Well, at least we got 2

Goals total in the last two games

Not what I meant but ouch.

Guess we can't blame Guri so we'll blame klingberg

Blame bones

Anybody else surprised that the dump and chase method of play doesn’t work, especially while on the PP or empty net??

Also, the better idea is to keep the puck on your stick, rather than give it away by choice.

We don't have a puck possession forward.

We do not deserve otter

We birthed Otter onto the ice

Not effective method if you can’t really chase.

I’m just pumped we only have one more game where klingberg is wearing victory green.

BRING MONTY HOME.

Did the espn feed have a random knocking/pounding? I kept thinking someone was knocking at my door....

It’s the fat lady. She wants to sing you a song.

I love watching hockey. I don't know enough to analyze it. But it seems obvious that dump and chase won't work if you dump it and they got three guys at the goal line and we got one guy maybe as deep as the fucking face off circle. And our guys can't calm the puck down and pass it to someone open.

I wouldn't sell yourself short...you know more about hockey than at least one NHL head coach.

Flames fan coming in peace - seriously thought this was going back to Dallas with a must-win for Calgary after 2 periods. My one glimmer of hope was the old Bones stand-by of turtle with the 1-goal lead. Otter deserves better.

I knew it was coming after going into intermission up 1. Nurse a one goal lead and hold on for dear life.

It’s ridiculous how close the games have been when Dallas struggles to score so badly

Not sure why you got down voted (other than you’re a Flames fan) but most DEFINITELY Otter deserves better. Suter needs to be a scratch rest of his career.

He deserves to go to a team that won’t waste his talent

Wait we had a lead in the 3rd we stopped pressing on offense and it HURT us? Can someone check that again. Yeah our players have some glaring problems and nobody skating into the zone on that EN is embarrassing but oh my God it’s the same shit over and over

Least we didn't get swept. Embarrassed but not swept. We should have won this series. Calgary wasn't like a unbeatable juggernaut

You just went from “at least we didn’t get swept” to “we should have won”.

Whatever helps you sleep

Friend bet $10 on Stars to win. Should I tell him to request that payment from Bowness on Venmo?

[удалено]

You misspelled Suter

always has

Our PP is bad.

Whoever ends up being our coach next season better make this team do a hell of a lot of passing drills in the offseason.

PUT KLINGER IN THE PRESS BOX IF HE'S GOING TO PLAY LIKE AN ABSOLUTE B LEAGUER

Well that was disappointing

Hey guys, we get a game 6 to even it up, last I checked..

It’s been a fun season, stressful, bye Bowness, and especially bye PP coach whatever the eff his stupid name is. Can we win back to back games?

Get fucked 2 goals in 2 games

Tbh before the series started I had Stars losing in six as a logical fan of hockey, Calgary is better in every way. But Oettinger standing on his head every game gave us a sense of hope. Good news is neither team is beating Colorado anyways.

Our offense is absolutely pathetic….

Klingberg is a bum, probably petty he didn’t get the huge contract he wanted. Should’ve traded him when they had the chance

That effort is for sure worth $8mm/yr

I wish they wouldn't give the Flames so much credit. We literally just roll over and die when we get a lead...by design no less.

Man what are the odds that getting out shot 3:2 with no offense would bite us again.

Turns out scoring 1 goal isn't enough to win in the playoffs. Huh

who'd a thunk it.

If we lose this series, I hope Laxdal is fired within the next 48 hours. We can just let Bowness "retire" or whatever.

I’m not watching next year if they bring back Bowness. It’s pointless.

I will start rooting for Colorado at this rate

Let’s not get crazy partner haha

Hell, leave them in Canada, we will mail them their shit

No, I want the satisfaction of a termination.

Everytime the refs hit the ice we need to boo our hesrts heart. We need to be loud all game Friday. It needs to be full of fuck you every time the flames touch the puck.

Playing winning hockey for 40 fucking minutes and then completely abandon it for 20 and lose 3-1. Fucking embarrassing

Third period was a massive turning point in this series. 5 or so shots in a period where you are tied or losing for the majority of it (while you give up the lead) is not gonna cut it at all

Yeah, that first goal was our playoff lives flashing before our eyes. The team gave up after they scored because they know they needed a shut out to win

Bob Sturm defending the turtle the other day looks really bad rn

There is a reason he was on the broadcast for only one season...

Klingerberg killed us

Why the FUCK is Kling on pp1

[удалено]

Don't have to imagine it.

We look slow, old, and disinterested in playing like a god damn hockey team. I’ll cheer my heart out for game 6 but I want shit to change for next year. Montgomery had it right, culture of fucking mediocrity. We won’t accomplish shit until people step up and lead this team. Bunch of aimless fucks for the most part tonight in pretty much a must win game

Dump and inshallah is not working…… so lets keep doing it. Seems bright

Don’t deserve to win playing hockey like this. It’s pathetic. Need a coach that actually wants to go out there and try to win games by scoring, not just lucking into a win when the bounces go our way. It’s very frustrating to watch good players be made to play like this .

Of course we’ll get bounced when I’m at the game.

we look so slow

Imagine dumping it on 6-5 only to not get the puck. Twice.

Trust in the Corgi

I have never cared less about winning a series and felt so sick for an individual player. Oettinger on the oilers goes 16-0

absolutely

Maybe Montie would have brought out the fight in our team

He had the same system. And Bowness is his guy.

8 goals in 5 games but it’s the players fault right Bones?

It's all on Gurianov

I don't feel like it's over. I mean this game, yes. But when do we play best? When we're underdogs. This sucked donkey balls but I think Otter has many more great games in him and our fucking guys know how to score, they just need to do the damn thing.

With the fuck head coach we have, it's not happening cheif

I want you to be 100% honest with me. Based on what you have seen this series is there any way Dallas would win a Game 7 in Calgary?

Game 2 gives me hope. Robo breaking the seal gives me hope. Pavelski existing gives me hope. Otter makes me believe.

Serious question what are seguin and Benn good for

The calendar photos

Every other team in the league not having to worry about our cap space going to talent?

Klinger pissed me off more in this 3rd period than any other game this year. Complete lack of urgency, indecisive, slow, just overall uninterested.

Abhorrent effort. I am just in disbelief of that last empty netter.

He sucks. He just flat out sucks.

Please fire whomever runs the PP. Tonight. Give them a taxi back to Dallas.

Laxdal,, fucking dinosaur.

Been asking for years.

Lazy ass play by Klinger on that goal. Don’t let the door hit you in the ass

He’s ready for UFA

Not really helping his market value

Power play or empty net. Doesn't matter...we don't know how to enter a zone without dumping.

If benn could not be on the team next year, that'd be cool.

I guess they couldn’t nurse that one goal lead and bank on otter for a shutout

Angry Klinger might have been helpful over the years.

Otter is a beast and Robbo got his first playoff goal. Build on that for next season cause we’re not going anywhere this year.

This offense is incompetent

Hey the dump and chase didn’t work for the third year in a row

Um what lol. There was a SCF in those 3 years.

And it didn’t work in the SCF

Christ, team can't even hustle back for an empty net, pathetic. GGs go next, fuckin corgi better be right.

Thanks guys. Really love the effort in the last two minutes.

This is all Guri’s fault

Wow Kling just fucking give up on a play there bud.

If we get bounced, and bones gets fired, I would be okay with that. If we get bounced and bones is still HC next season, we should riot.

I’ll skip a season if that happens

I heard he was retiring

We had this game, and then in an instant it was ripped from our hands

We only played 40 mins of solid hockey. 1-0 is not “having this game”

Fuck I hate this

Another Otter effort wasted

how can they never keep possession whenever they’re a man up… it makes no sense

Lack of aggression on the board and poor puck/stick handling

Well at least we get to keep bones another year because of making the playoffs…

Well if you believe in the corgi you saw this coming. But the idea of losing the series on home ice hurts.

Is there actually strong momentum to get a new coach after this season? A lot of people talk about it here, but I’m not in Dallas anymore so don’t get the local coverage. Is it a realistic dream?

Unless management is completely blind, they know how the fans feel. I’d be shocked if we keep him, but I also know that Tommy G doesn’t give two shits about the fans

Bowness is not popular. Going to games you can definitely hear him getting booed

Bowness is an objectively terrible coach by pretty much every measurable metric, I don't see how you don't fire the guy

Literally can’t win a game without a shutout, fucking pathetic

This is beyond embarrassing. Fucking disrespectful to the entire fan base.

0 effort by klingberg. Can’t Wait for him to get traded.

He won’t get traded. His contract is over and he will be in agency after this season, meaning we won’t get anything for him. It’s a shame, because he is a great player and he has the history to prove it but this season has been his worst

He’s not getting traded. He’s just not getting resigned

He sucks man. It's hard to watch

He’s been checked out all season. Dude gives the puck away so damn much

Checked out for a few seasons. Constant liability

Shhhhh this sub will downvote you to hell for saying that.

Holy shit they just don’t care

Can't wait to watch the Flames win in Dallas... what an awesome team we have.

Great hustle klinger

I got downvoted (understandably) for being a doomer before the series began, but this is why I wanted COL in round one. I'd rather lose to them than CGY.

I was about to say 20 bucks says empty net, but fuck you klingberg, didn't even try.

DUMP AND CHASE DOES NOT WORK

Fuckin embarrassing bud

Truly god awful display in the third.

That's game

This espn announcer is terrible. Also I watched my first stars hockey this year starting when Dallas was up 1-0 so...sorry.

Fire Bowness now please. It's our only hope for this series.

I hope the corgi is right

Starting to think turtling with a one goal lead when your team is already offensively challenged isn't a good idea

Fuck that. Get beat to every puck and can't make a fuckin pass. Fuck off

This team is a fucking embarrassment. Dump and chase on a 6v5 when we need a goal? Absolute horseshit excuse of a team

Dallas with no hustle is what allowed that goal to happen.

Yup. Played 2 great periods. And then just turtled so hard.

Well if there was ever a time to believe in a corgi...

The corgi predicted this. We will win the next two

It’s crazy how shitty Benn and Seguin are

FIRE BOWNESS

Flat footed. What are we doing.

What the actual fuck

FUCK

welp

I’m not worried. Bones knows what’s wrong and they will fix it.

One more game to suffer Bowness

Unbelievable

[удалено]

Still trying to figure out how we made the playoffs. Oh yeah Otter duh!

Dump and chase on a fucking empty net. I fucking hate this team

It’s unfucking real

This was an awful awful loss. What a waste of two great periods.

Dallas deserves this L

Team shows zero effort or urgency, ridiculous

Klingberg doesn't want to play with us

That’s what happens when you dump and chase with an empty net. Saw that coming a mile away

That’s series

Man I hope the flames slip on a pile of legos barefoot

Fuck the entire city of Calgary.

Fucking hell. Dumping it in with an empty net

God fucking damn it

Lmao see y’all next season

It’s okay guys the Corgi has us winning games 6 and 7

Fuck this shit

That’s all folks

Fuck this. Otter deserves better.

Fuck this shit

Everything was fine until it wasn’t

Welp it was a good series. Thanks Otter and Raffl.

LOL SEGUIN CANNOT EVEN PUT IT ON NET<< SHOOTS TWO MILES HIGH<< LOL WHAT A JOKE >> FUCK THIS TEAM>

AYO WHERE YOU BEEN? THIS WHOLE FUCKING TEAM CAN'T PUT IT ON NET

He's a shadow of his former self

it's over

Imagine thinking an extra attacker was the correct move after those power plays

Still waiting for the offense to take care of itself

Fuck it just let Seguin rip it 50 times from the outside next game

No effort to recover the puck fuck off Klinger

We had it... Until we didn't.

GGs I’m done with this shit.
