Some members are already starting to justify him not wanting to play here. Same with Tkachuk. Maybe ignorance is bliss.

If the oilers can bring in players and keep them, why can’t the flames?

2002-2007 Calgary was undoubtedly the place to be. The city was alive and thriving. There is something wrong with this place as of late and all the signs are there.

No new arena

Players leaving town

Downtown is basically dead

Mixed opinions in the idea of Olympics making a return.

I’ve never seen this city so divided politically

When I moved back to Calgary, in 1999 - we were voted the cleanest city 2 years or more in a row and I couldn’t have been prouder to be home.

When I was a kid here in the 80s and early 90s, we knew all our neighbours. I lived in my home now for 13 years, and maybe spoke to 2 of them.

This place isn’t what it used to be. But I still
Love it. In my honest opinion, it is without a doubt, the best city in Canada. But it definitely seems to be losing its charm.
