Yes, I took a subscription for the perspectives of other teams, plus there's football coverage that is quite good that I wander into from time to time. I got it for 50% in Sept.

If you're buying it just for Flames content you will be disappointed. It's been a full week again since we've got Flames stuff other than Kent posting a Slack conversation about the value of "tough guys" between himself and Justin Bourne, which hardly counts as effort writing, it's like I'm reading some transcript to a 5 min long podcast segment, FFS.

If we had a regular postgame-related segment, much more video review from Bourne, some better prospect coverage, then it will get there. Even if you only follow hockey, if you like to read the stuff from other teams around the league it's worth it. But for pure Flames, it's not even on the level that FlamesNation is at right now, even though FN doesn't have a natural storyteller like Duhatschek, Odland or Johnson.
