Hey if a third line winger is our version of Kessel, I'm pretty happy with our lineup.

I find Maher is a lot like Cole now. Old and fudges up a lot of plays and never gets names right. Still like him 'cause of the history and his voice, but his play calling skills have seriously deteriorated.

Im lovin that seemingly everyone in the media is thinking the Flames are among the worst teams in the NHL...other teams will start believing it as well....makes them easy prey.

Hey PJ...part of the reason we're in the basement is because we've played the least amount of games by as much as 4 games compared to some teams.

Pathetic.

Why? His wife dying totally pushed him over the edge. Watch Cherry before and after his wife dying and you can easily see that's when he started his slide toward dementia. I am not commenting on his wife in the slightest, but her dying has certainly had a negative affect on Cherry's sanity.

Racist might be the wrong term... what do you call someone that makes gross negative over-generalizations about an entire population of people? Of wait, nope, that's racist.

I knew Jim Hughson loved the Canucks but wow, he's turned it up to 11 in the off season. I liked how he said the Canucks are playing well right now because this is the time of year good teams play well, so even though there are teams with better records than the Canucks, the Canucks are clearly the best.

This is brutal but I think the less love the flames get the better. We are better underdogs I think.

All this bias makes me glad to be a flames fan tbh. I'm Scottish and my football team is Dundee united and they're regarded a bit like the flames. Makes it all the sweeter when we get it right up them

He has been ridiculously consistent especially considering his NHL path. You are trying too hard now.

I can't believe this is what we have to put up with on national tv. PJ Stock and Kevin Weekes. Not to mention Greg Millen and Glen Healy.

And you guys hate Kerr!? I wish this game was on Sportsnet.

Its almost embarressing

20 minutes of gushing over the Canucks

Oh and the Flames are wearing their road whites but lets talk more about Henrik Sedin and even though he doesn't have a goal how awesome his prison p%%%y beard looks . . . . 10 minutes later

Like the Canucks the Flames use hockey sticks, but the Canucks would be womping the pathetic Flames if they had Kesler in the lineup and lets talk about Loungo's mothers pie

You get the point.

I'll still take Alzheimer Maher over Homer Hughson or <wince> Kerr any game of the schedule.

I guess pretty much every Flames shot is "weak" according to Jim Hughson.
Also, uhh what a fag.

Another reason why it is so ridiculous the nhl publishes standings in such a meaningless format.
