How to the Flames work Mangiapane's 14 M salary into their cap after his 60-80 goal season?

Its hilarious watching the usual suspects struggling so hard to be negative right now

Players are too good! we can't afford them


3X cup champ Sutter likes fancy stats

I'm very interested to see how they play against Philly tomorrow. I think it will be a sneak peak into the players' preparation, leadership and the coaching staff's ability to have them refocused.

First game home after a hugely successful road trip, high fives from family and friends lots of positive press. Probably kind of tired, feeling pretty good about themselves and some trends in their play going the wrong way.

For any team that is a recipe for a let down and a tough night.

Looking forward to their response. I'd assume Markstrom gets the start.

Or when people refer to anyone from the US a “yankee”.

As the old saying has it:

To people from outside the U.S., a Yankee is an American.
To an American from the South, a Yankee is a Northerner.
To a Northerner, a Yankee is a New Englander.
To a New Englander, a Yankee is a Vermonter.
To a Vermonter, a Yankee is someone who has pie for breakfast.
