Flames Excited to be a part of CP

Hello all. I already made my first post. Thought I'd check in here. I was using the Message Board in the Calgary Flames site for a bunch of years and then all of a sudden I couldn't login anymore; tried creating a new account from three different computers to no avail. Time to move on, I guess. The CP forum seems to be very busy. Anyway. Good to be here. Glad Sutter came back.

Welcome!

I don’t post much but I read a lot. For me, this is by far and away the best Flames forum there is. On top of that, there’s a ton of off topic and other sub-forums that are amazing.

Welcome! Please take a position on the following issues:
  • the legality of u-turns in a school zone
  • your views about Will Smith slapping Chris Rock at the Oscars
  • would you prefer that the Golden Knights or Oilers be eliminated from the playoffs first
  • should CPS be allowed to have patches on their uniforms
  • pineapple: acceptable pizza topping, or scourge to all right-thinking people
  • the general competence of the Conservative Party of Canada
  • Brad Treliving's performance as general manager
  • minivans as a preferable mode of transport to trucks
After responding, you will be assigned a clique of posters who will routinely "thank" your posts. You are expected to reciprocate this action.

Haha this is awesome. I totally feel like I have a group of friends on here even though I've never met them.

Weirdest is when you see two people you consider your CP friends fighting about something and you don't want to take a side.

Welcome! Went through a similar journey when I first started regularly posting on Calgarypuck as well.

And then you just started losing to me in the Hockey Pool.

This is the way....

You mean losing to Scorp’s rejects. Wait, that is even worse.

Is that better or worse than losing to you in the F1 pool?

That trophy looked snazzy on my mantle. I am getting it back soon enough.

Between E=NG and the variety of relevant off-topic threads CP easily beats other Flames boards out there.

Good choice to jump aboard just before our next epic playoff run.

The potential for time wasting here is dangerous though, and there are a handful of posters always at the ready to debate endlessly in circles with you. So be careful!

Most of the debates are more pointless than this one.
