As someone from a country that isn't represented at the olympics, I am so damn happy to have some Flames hockey back!
Look forward to seeing Ortio, I doubt Granlund gets many opportunities tonight, but that's okay, let him ease in.
3-2 Flames (score with 15 seconds left in regulation to break LA hearts).

Six Flames draft picks in the line up. I wonder when the last time that happened was?

I lol'd when I saw that you're in LA. (I'm assuming you're a transplant, but I still thought it was funny).

Is it confirmed that Ortio is starting? Or just speculation?
Regardless... Go Flames Go!!! I'm looking forward to some NHL action again.

According to Millions, the Kings didn't arrive at the hotel until 3:00 AM and it's not likely they'll skate before the game.
Could mean a Flames win...

Didn't realize that they played last night. Well, they did score 6 goals, so hopefully they don't have the same scoring touch as they did yesterday. However, they did let in 4 goals. Jones played last night, is Quick in for this one?

Looked at the Flames website, and it still doesn't have a confirmation date of when he is coming back. Not even a duration of how long it is. I am going to guess 2-4 weeks.

He hasn't skated since his injury. It could be quite a while before he's back.

So he's a lot like Miikka!

Ortio is stone cold in advance of making his first NHL start: "It seems that he has no heartbeat,” Hartley said. #Flames

Hartley (cont): “I talked to (Ortio) yesterday and it was almost like I was asking him to go for a burger with me after practice." #Flames

Was looking at the stats prior to the game... Not surprising that Gio is a +3 and Hudler at +1, but D. Jones at +2? That's awesome.
