(Starting this one early since I'm in sessions all morning)

Getting a little fresh air to clear his head after the debacle on Saturday, Our Hero decides to take in some of the "views from the 6":

Go Flames

If I didn't hear enough from my Oilers fan buddies (who needs enemies with friends like this?) this weekend, I certainly hope the Flames don't lay another egg so guys like Big Tuna can come here and gloat. Season has been as humiliating as some of the young guns seasons as it is.

This month can be salvaged by going 3 for 3 on the road. Start with one.

This has the potential to be nasty. But hopefully with the team being on the road, they can get away and simplify their game.

I'll be happy with a boring 2-1 game.

This is the hinge of the season IMO. They realize that they've been playing like crap and pull up their socks and start a winning streak or this is where the wheels start to fall off.

This is one of the biggest games of the season for me because I'll be watching this one at with a bunch of no good leaf fans (actually they've been pretty reasonable the past few seasons realizing they're in a rebuild...but their still no good). I really want the Flames to start playing to their potential, hopefully being at home will wake up Bennett.

Currently sitting in Halifax Airport.

First Flames game in 12 years. SO PUMPED.

If anyone else is going to be in the ACC tonight, I'll be the guy in the white Flames jerseys in Section 320.

Well since moving to Toronto I'm 0/7 at the ACC. It ends tonight, it has to, I don't know if my wife can take another night of me drunkely beaking Leaf fans about how terrible they are, only to walk out of the building with my head down being taunted by the masses. Please Flames, for the sake of my marriage, get it done!!!!!! Go Flames Go!

Would just like to see some fight and passion in their game. Maybe a little intensity if that's not asking too much.

Gaudreau will continue to struggle but Bennett will score a goal. Monahan's streak is likely over but he'll play well, he just won't get any luck tonight.

Gully will probably keep the same lineup because the did so well on the weekend.

i decided to not get tickets to the annual flames game at the ACC this year (only other time was the year our first kid was born)....

The flames couldn't get up for a home game against a team who is at their heels in their playoff race vs the preds, couldn't then respond and come out hungry against their biggest rivals, who were playing their backup kid goalie, playing on a back to backs, again at home.

I'd be shocked if they some how just figure it out tonight against a decent leaf team. This week is going to be brutal. 3 games in 4 nights, all against the 3 eastern conference teams, that are all playing pretty well.

go flames go, though.

I think not... One game a year now... JG has to put on a show!

I'm now raising my Johnny Hat-trick prediction to a Johnny 5 goal night!

Bubbsy!!! We need ya there!! There's still time!! #throughthickandthin

Let's get some flames jersey in the crowd and silence them!

We played them to a 3-0 defeat and I had a bet on the game with a buddy from work... He had to wear my 'Cammlleri' miss-spelled Walmart jersey the whole day hahaha. He counter bet me that the Flames will lose tonight and I'll have to wear a leafs jersey for a week... I said I can't believe your name is Mike, makes a week of Cammlleri even better hahaha.

Bubbsy and any other Flames fans that are on the fence... Let's fill the ACC like when the leafs are in Calgary!!
