First time he had Button on and Button made him look silly by instantly refuting it because he appears to actually follow the Flames.
Then today Reda had Noodles and some other guy on and started the segment talking about how mad Smith is because he’s been so terrible. Then went on to say that the Flames will have to rely on their red hot top line and specifically mentioned how Johnny, Mony and Lindholm were on fire.
Like what the hell? Do you even watch hockey Gino?
Maybe the over arching theme of the season has been bad goaltending and red hot offence but the last month our goaltending has been solid (with Rittich struggling a bit) and our top line struggling to find consistency.

TSN always looking to manufacture a story, when they did games here, there was always some side story they tried to promote. They have to stir the pot here because now they are forced to have the Flames covered, especially with MTl now out.
And with a Calgary correspondent as quiet, meek and awkward as Franklin, they have to make up stuff like this up out east..
