I used the word embarrassing.

I just wish they'd start putting away the teams way below them in the standings. The Oilers and Buffalo games should have been 4 easy points.

Pacific won the All-Star tournament, nice to see for the Calgary and Edmonton fans on here. Players represented from the two teams had a respectable showing from the look of it as well. Smith putting up better numbers than his co-worker and McDavid and Johnny having multiple points.

The Jagr experiment is over, he goes on waivers tomorrow!! Makes me wonder if it was worth it to him, 2nd all-time leading scorer, first ballot Hall-of-Famer, waived because he wasn't good enough?

I guess he can't just retire then un-retire with another NHL team or KHL team or they'd all be doing it.

From my experience, Oiler's fan don't generally pay to much attention to those technical details.

The Alberta rivalry is sure a far cry from 20 years ago. It use to be who was the best in the league, now it’s dwindled to who’s the best in the province. With waiting hope of either team making the playoffs.

Oh my God...Frolik. Flames up 2-1 with less than two minutes in game and he absolutely hands Vegas the tying goal...but Flames give up 3 in 49 seconds to lose 4-2 in the last 90 seconds? Really?? I'm gonna go puke......went from 2 points that we needed to trailing the pack. Jesus wept.....I was a Frolik fan right up until the last two minutes.

It's a major problem they've had the last five games.

Needs to be addressed, pronto.

Fifty Eight minute games don't cut it....That was an epic collapse. Coach Glen needs to throw a player up into the second tier maybe at the next practice....

I didn't watch any of the game tonight but was checking the score up until the last five minutes of the game. What the heck happened?

They showed they can do it with the 7 game streak, so hopefully they can address the problem (mostly mental I think). Team chemistry and psychology can really mess up or elevate a team and I think that is a big issue for Edmonton too right now... although Calgary is obviously a much better team.

(not at you Twisted Canuck)

I don't know if I'd give the majority of the blame to Frolik on this. He had the puck and was being pressured, passes it back to T.J. Brodie who doesn't take the puck or the man, but elects to just stand there. I get what Frolik was trying to do, Brodie, not so much. Pretty sure they cover than on day 1 as a defenceman, take the puck or the man.
