75,000 without power yesterday. Worst of it will come this weekend. the 90km/h winds tend to do some pretty good damage. I don't think we'll come close to the 500k without power that the storm last year brought.
I'll be attending the game and fully expect a dead crowd. They are giving away a free beer with your entry tonight I heard because the interest in tickets is the worst its been since the 1990s.
I hope the Flames crush tonight. They really do look like a team on the verge of breaking out. They have all the right components, the coach just needs to get used to his team.
Despite the ugly start I think GMBT has done amazing things by adding Elliott, Brouwer, Versteeg, Bennett, Frolik, Hamilton, etc and rebuilding quickly and efficiently.
There weren't a ton of grade 'A' coaching candidates available, and I'm just going to have to trust the Brad went through "the process" hiring Glen, and he's right for this team.
Go Flames Go!
