[AC]

Akim Aliu, Sven Baertschi, TJ Brodie, Roman Cervenka, Mark Cundari, Ben Hanowski, Roman Horak, and Max Reinhart.

Techincally Brodie, Cervenka, and Horak were not rookies but I felt they deserved to be included.

I have my Iginla career tribute video 98% finished, but I plan to hold that release until prior to the game vs Boston this year.

In the mean time, any player specific videos people want? I still have some Ex-Flames videos I want to put together (Huselius, Nolan, Langkow, Nystrom).

Next up:
Giordano 12/13,
Glencross 12/13,

That sweet first outlet pass from Brodie in the video, going from memory:

I think one of the sweetest things about that was how he eluded a check and also took a hit to keep the puck behind the net while the rest of the team was blowing the zone.

It's a sweet pass because he had just been playing great defensive/team oriented hockey directly prior. I love when a player gets rewarded for that type of thing.

Nice one... Even alphabetical!

Kind of wish there was room for Cervenka for another season. Bad skater or not, his shots were wicked. Kind of thinking that's what Granlund ends up being, but young enough to get better at his skating.

[FBI]

Don't think it was his skating, just his bad defense and general softness?

He skated fine with the puck and in the offensive zone. You could tell he's never had to play a 2-way game before and just couldn't adapt.

Thanks again ac, that really helps me get pumped up for the coming season. Sven beartschi is a god damn beauty! I have a really hard time seeing the bottom five finish most are predicting the flames will end up with.

[Pierre "Monster" McGuire]

So this is what you've been up to AC. Love the rookie videos the most from you.

Cervenka had flashes of brilliance. Really wish we could have had another year with him.

[AC]

I'm going to make a Hudler video first actually. He had plenty of nice goals and assists this year. Then Gio and Glencross.

[Pierre "Monster" McGuire]

While most of my memories on Baertschi last season were of his lack of strength and being pushed off the puck too easily, this video showed me how smart and skilled he truly is.

[Ashasx]

Thank this man.

Great idea, he looked really good in some of those clips, and because he's under contract I can feel good about getting pumped for hudler.

Craig MacDonald, Jason Jaffray and Warren Peters?

[getbak]

The cherry on top for Reinhart's first goal is how totally lost Schultz looked on the play.

[BigBrodieFan]

Thank you so much for this, how kind of you.

[doctajones428]

That hit from Aliu... I'll always remember that one

[To Be Quite Honest]

These are pretty awesome of you. This is a lot of work for one person and you should be commended for your effort!

Most of your memories? lol

[Stupid]

How about a Joey MacDonald video? I liked him last season and I hope he succeeds.
