Not sure exactly what the question is................

There are many threads with many differing opinions. Are looking for something specific?

yes. first. we have a lot of support emails coming in and even some new ticket orders. I think it's some kind of loyalty sign but can't get a grip on it yet. KK

Yes it is. I think we are kind of taking the posters by surprise tonight. Again, thank for signing up.

Ken, how long until a deal is reached? Are we looking at another season going by without games...or is there even a time frame?

What is the next step for the owners?

I'm going to take a guess and say this isn't Ken King?

Seriously?

Assuming yes, your press conference today was great. Extremely sincere and when compared to Goodenow's horrible display a reason in itself to support the owners in this struggle.

I am pro-owner 100% and have been EXTREMELY worried the owners would give in to save the season. If that had been the case and a bad deal had been made i would have not renewed my 2 season tickets next season, as i could not have stood watching the players after having gotten their way. As it is now, with a firm commitment to improving the game proven by the ultimate sacrifice of a entire season i am 100% commited to long term support of the Flames.

I look forward to the right deal, not just A deal....

Claeren.

I was a bit naive and was certain we would get a deal, even up to the presser by Gary Bettman. But we will have a deal by start of next season or alternatives in place. KK

ken is getting his post count up pretty quickly though.

btw, good press conference today.

anything to keep the flames in calgary is a great deal by me.

also, please ignore doh!biggen as he doesn't speak for one person on this list or in Calgary. next chance you get, ask him to please go to either a) toronto or b) europe or trenton. a) because he clearly doesn't understand albertans, and b) because it will let him cover the 2 new leagues that have "deep pockets".

also, if you see strachan, please punch him....he hates calgary. we hate him back.

and while i am at it, can you please ban healy and kyprios from the dome? thanks.
