3) Would you consider yourself a die hard flames fan, a interested flames fan, a casual flames fan?


4) What would it take for you to switch team allegiances?


5) Do you think that the on ice product that is provided by the NHL a) Its great hockey don't change a thing b) Its not a great product, I watch it because there's not a lot out there or I feel obligated c) I'm thinking of being done with the NHL.


thanks guys.
1. Nope. Once the Flames are out I could care less.

2. Likely. After the emotions come down I will be glued again. Flames are part of life, like breathing.

3. Certainly die hard.

4. For the Flames to relocate or not exist. I will never abandon the Calgary Flames.

5. The officiating needs to be fixed. Game management is bs and should not be a thing. Refs pick and choose what to call with no consistency. If it wasn't such a tin foil hat idea I would swear some of these refs are betting on games and then ignoring obvious calls or making soft ones to help determine the outcome. Then again, it happened in the NBA so maybe not so tin foil hat. There definitely needs to be some form of accountability for the officials rather than no matter how bad they bungle things the NHL backs them up and then anyone who criticizes them gets a fine.
