I don't think there's a human language which does have the words.

I'm usually fairly indifferent to the puppet stuff, but I thoroughly enjoyed that one!

Did you mean 'Theatricus'? (instead of Threaticus)

Eternalis Relocatii Threaticus = "Eternal Relocation Threat"?

A loss tonight (which, based on the way we've played Arizona this year, is quite likely) and it's entirely possible we only pick up four* more points this season.

* Edit: forgot we played the Nucks too.

I want the Flames to go 2-5 down the stretch with wins vs the Oil and Nucks meaning tonight is a loss

We should have no problem beating the Oilers and the Nucks... they are doing their best not to win

So for some actual game news, as per sureLoss in 2 other threads, the Flames have returned Hathaway and F. Hamilton to Stockton, regular recalled Derek Grant, and emergency recalled Emile Poirier, Hunter Shinkaruk, and Brett Kulak.

As per the Flames website and recent injury status, Jooris is probably still out, Jokipakka did not practice, and Stajan might be still suffering from a facial/head injury that he was playing through. No idea who the other defenseman out would be, but let's just guess that it's Brodie.

If I had to take a stab at the lines tonight it would probably be:

Gaudreau-Monahan-Poirier
Shinkaruk-Backlund-Frolik
Ferland-Bennett-Colborne
Bouma-Grant-Bollig

Giordano-Hamilton
Wotherspoon-Engelland
Kulak-Nakladal

I would think Bouma would move up and Shinkaruk would slot into the 4th line. That is more Hartley's style.

Coyotes with a tank move of their own?

No Doan, Stone, or Hanzal at the morning skate.

He did have Hamilton on the top line.

Looked like Doan got concussed on Saturday when he crashed into the boards. Could barely get up.

With Hathaway, Hamilton & Wotherspoon (I think) back in the AHL and Jooris still injured (I think) I would hope to see the following:

Gaudreau-Monahan-Poirier
Shinkaruk-Backlund-Frolik
Ferland-Bennett-Colborne
Bouma-Grant-Bollig
- Stajan

Giordano-Brodie
Kulak-Hamilton
Jokipakka-Nakladal
- Engelland

Ortio-Backstrom
- Hiller

Edit: And had I looked up only 2 or 3 posts I would see the exact same lines more or less from Cali.

Huh? He played both Hathaway and Hamilton on the top line and neither is billed as a top two line player. He's not going to play a undersized scoring forward on the 4th line, that's silly talk.
