The Flames drop the rubber match to the Jets. Despite a decent effort the Flames let this one get out of control after some insane officiating (apparently booting the puck into the net is allowed now). They are walking dead right now and the playoffs are a distant memory. We're breaking down:

• Monahan and Ritchie dragging down Gaudreau
• Player utilization (using Jack Han's article "How to Ruin a Player")
• Markstrom's struggles
• Matthew Tkachuk's antics
• Sutter's plan for the forecheck

Also, we're trying to parse out what is next for this franchise. A rebuild is unlikely, a re-tool is difficult, and they team is as bad as ever.
