I was wondering if you guys can name a few bars and where they are?

My brother is in Calgary for a couple days and it's his first time, he loves to check out new bars, are there any cool ones close to downtown?

Thanks!

^ The back alley is a sieve!!!

I think Sky Bar could have the shot from the point that takes our powerplay to the next level though.

We could maybe make an emergency call up to Detour to prop up our back end.

Moneypennies is also in Omaha and can really muck it up deep in the corners.
Both niche players that will probably only really be used when the situation is extremely desperate, and/or things get really tight. Or, if someone doesn't give a shinguard and its already a blowout.

There's a really cool martini bar that just opened where Kyoto 17 used to be called the Well. Same clientelle as The Mercury, and most of the same bartenders.

WTF fotze, Cowboys as a 1st line center? That place is the Jaromir Jagr of the bar scene. All show but can never live up to the paycheque.

Back Alley is not only the best keeper in town, possibly the best keeper in the Western Conference.

Is the James Joyce pub still around?? I believe it was on 8th Ave - Guiness and Boddington's were some of the choice beers on tap

The Met on 8th Ave is just awsome. Melrose is pretty good too.

I dont know how old you are, but if you are between 18-24, Cowboys is pretty fun.

I've been a happy man since Schanks got sent to the minors. Has the size, but no idea how to use it.

Sutter is God.
