The only team that is "No Good" enough to warrant a thread at all is Edmonton, and even then.. There are probably more posts on this board about the Oilers than there are about the Flames.

I wish they would get rid of Kane so I can be a Winnipeg fan as well as Calgary fan. Cant stand the guy. Wish someone would tune him up big time. On another note, I wish Calgary had their power play. Much more creative.

Oddly enough, LA seems to be very much in play too. We really need to learn how to play with a lead though.

So as I understand it, we should make a Calgary is good thread and lock every other thread. Especially if we make it "Calgary is friken good"

The Jets are a decent team. I cheer for them over any other Canadian team besides the Flames. Their fans are passionate and not nearly as annoying as Oilers or Canucks fans.

Clearly the intent of the thread is to discuss the likely battle for 8th spot between the Flames and Jets.
Jets fans need to chill out and not get so defensive all the time; I'm sure Troutman isn't actually trying to equate the Jets to Oilers/Canucks.

Every thread by default is a Calgary is Good thread, because we're good.

Let's just say that I don't cheer AGAINST them as hard as I do against the other Canadian teams, especially Leafs, Oilers, Canucks. (But I still cheer against them.)

I still don't want them to ever win a Cup. But if they did, I'd be less annoyed than if Vancouver did. (But still annoyed.)

I dont think any Jet fans have even posted in this thread, nevermind get defensive? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This thread doesn't really bother me. There will likely be a battle between Winnipeg Minny and Calgary for the last playoff spot. If we cant get it, I'd rather it be Calgary over an American club.

The Jets are battling a great many injuries and they have a crazy tough schedule this month. LA, Anaheim, Columbus, Chicago and Pittsburgh coming up, and two games against Dallas. There is a chance the Jets could fall out of the race this month - but those same Stars would replace them. LA and San Jose are still in play from our perspective, but one thing that really needs to happen is the Flames taking care of home ice. We have to be winning far more than 50% of our home games.

Over-ruled. Thread stays.

That leaves poor Montreal and Ottawa without No good threads. Thusly, Montreal and Ottawa are in fact "no good".

If anything, the Jets and Winnipegers are worse.

I hate every other Canadian team, because their fans annoy me just by existing in the Dome. They are no good.

I'd rather a US team (with Canadian players) win if the Flames didn't.
