If you can't see the physical side to Colborne's game, I can't help you understand how the puck possession game works. The guy has become one fo the best Flames in using his body to shelter the puck and make the opposition overload to take the puck off of him. Jankowski learns the same skill, with those sick passing mitts he has, and we'll have a setup machine for a player like Ferland who goes to the net so effectively.

Man those BU jerseys look pretty sick. A Hickey group buy?

Geez, looking at Jankowski in those post-game interviews makes you realize how young the guy still is.

And makes you wonder if they still make those Oxy pads.

Saturday is going to be a fun day to just sit back and enjoy some hockey. First, the Flames and Jets with nothing on the line but getting ready for the playoffs. Then, at least one Flames' pick is guaranteed to become a national champion Saturday night.


It should be a good game. The top two teams in Hockey East meeting in Boston. They split their season series this year, with each team winning in the other's home building, but that was way back at the beginning of November.

Providence is only 50 miles from Boston, so both teams should have strong support in the crowd.


Eichel is a finalist for the Hobey Baker tomorrow, and BU has already won two trophies at the Garden this season (the Beanpot and the Hockey East title). This could cap off a storybook freshman year for Eichel before he makes his way to Buffalo or Arizona in the fall. Or, Gillies can backstop the Friars to their first ever national championship before he goes pro.

He's only a month older than Monahan, and way less filled out because his growth spurt was so sudden + he never played Major Junior or even Junior A.

But yeah, dat acne.

A Calgary ROW and a Vancouver regulation loss could get us home ice in the first rd.

GFG!
