^This^ is how you spot someone who's never heard of Anders Eriksson.

Do not utter that name. Single handedly cost the Flames two playoff series.

Geez... Brodie, Butler, Babchuck... Backlund, Bouwmeester, Baertschi and Begin... why don't the Flames just change their logo to a flaming B? They can change some names too... Biginla, Bammalleri, Birving, Bhudler, Banguay,
Maybe they can't pronounce the letter C

Week to week doesn't sound good. Wishing it was day to day!

Fact that it is a hip flexor is good news, knee or ankle is probably worse,

Well, fudge...


Injury at the WJ, the injury in Abby, now this... This doesn't sit well with me. Might be way too early to conclude, but is he injury prone? I have to admit, I'm a little concerned.

OK, so the hip flexor's hurt, but can't he use the toothpick or serrated blade or bottle opener instead?

I am more concerned when a guy has an injury history with the same injury. He has had a concussion, a neck injury, and now a hip flexor.

The later two likely being more to him just not being 100% physically ready to be an everyday pro-player at his stature yet.

Great way to burn the first year of his contract. An absolute waste.

Really? Must be awesome to always be right once an event takes place and then ascert an opinion clearly designed to create an arguement not a debate but an arguement.

Eriksson was a disaster..... but at 21 minutes a game for 61 games he was not a 5/6 defenseman.

The Flames were able to make the playoffs with Eriksson playing 21 minutes

Not a great start for Sven's first year of professional hockey. Hope this isn't a sign of things to come with the injuries.

It's unfortunate, but I would rather be careful with him for now.
