Hopefully Brouwer's next ride will be a ticket out of town

Is there any other Flames parent(s) who the fans have just loved from the beginning? Iginla maybe?

We can't get enough Guy over here.

Gotta include Brouwer in something because if many fans get their way, Brouwer won't have much involvement in the lineup.

Oooh, maybe this is where he waves goodbye to all the fans!

I am quite sure the lineup of parade participants has primarily to do with who happens to be in town. Brouwer lives in Calgary F/T, no?

Brouwer has a house here for sure.

Curious that Stone and Brouwer are representing the organization. Not from a personal perspective -- they both seem like good guys -- but just from the fact that it's not a given they'll both be here on opening night.

Love the Gaudreaus. Gotta make some noise for Guy.

Would be fun to talk to JG and get his thoughts on the revamped roster.

I think I'll be in attendance this time. It's gonna be a scorcher too.

Pretty sure it is pronounced "Gai".

Brouwer can't even ride a horse in a parade without getting lit up by the fans.

It is the French pronunciation, like Guy Lafleur.

Which is a shame IMO. I think he’s been terrible but man, can the digs ever stop?

You would think so, but are we sure? I know the surname Gaudreau is not pronounced as it would correctly be in Quebec.

Yes. He has been interviewed many times since Johnny joined the team.

Johnny's dad is freakin' awesome. Glad to see him being able to attend and be one of the stars of the show!

I haven't seen a Canadian hockey city ''embrace'' a hockey dad like Mr. Gaudreau since probably Walter Gretzky way back. He's probably as recognisable as Johnny is in Calgary right now.

Will Brouwer be riding a horse? I mean....they're wild animals and mindless killing machines...

I would love to hear how Johnny describes the Stampede on one of his interviews with a podcast or reporter in New Jersey later this summer.
