I don't think Cole belongs in the same category as Weiss and Modano.

No, I ignored most of what you said because you missed the point. Never mind, though, it's late. People are different. You're going to 'feel bad' an awful lot if you keep expecting everyone to think and react the same way that you do.

Yes, yes, that's a very well-crafted condescending post that makes you seem dignified and that your opinions are superior to mine. Mission accomplished. Now, you didn't answer all of my questions, though... Do you feel that the Flames are a superior hockey team to the Red Wings?

Yes, he did. Jimmy was solid. That and the power play getting a couple are the positive takeaways. Unfortunately, they are outnumbered by the negative ones.

Because being upset about one loss means that 'you aren't willing to lose'... Besides, it wasn't just one unfortunate play (it was two pretty terrible periods) and it wasn't just one loss (it's 4 straight). So, then, why do you find the loss so acceptable? Do you feel that the Flames are a superior hockey team to the Red Wings? If so, I disagree, but I can better relate to your complacency regarding the loss - it seems much more understandable. I, on the other hand, feel that the Flames are an inferior team when compared to Detroit and won that game because they wanted it more and tried harder.... and that is the TYPE of loss that I do not find acceptable. To each their own, though, I suppose. Also, I think others are probably better sources of knowledge regarding what they respectively can or can't enjoy than you are.

This team is so much harder to watch than they should be. They have to embarrassed at their current level of play because it is pathetic.

Deserved loss. In no way Howard's fault. Everyone else sucked.

Whether or not they pull a win out here, I can't see how this game pulls them out of their current slump.

Whatever. Calgary deserved that goal. Detroit played like garbage after the 1st.

Of course

I'll take that trade

Like it.

Like it.

Datsyuk doesn't turn 38 until next July. No need to make him any older than he is.

As argument could be made that this factor (when comparing the two hits) is somewhat offset by the teammate pinning the guy and resulting whiplash effect in Rinaldo's hit. Otherwise, I agree. And, I'm just now realizing that all you were saying is that they were different. So, I agree completely.

It's a horror movie

Nice turnover DeKeyser

Richards sucks

What the hell Richards?

Well, let's not have a repeat performance of that period

2nd PP markedly worse than the 1st. Same result, tho

Too bad Zetterberg shot center mass there.

Of course they score after that garbage call

So much for fewer penalties.

At least they had a lot of o-zone possession and a couple close calls. It was better than the rest of the game thus far. Maybe they can build on it.
