Yes. The GNOME.

On opening night I was blessed with the opportunity to have the bench seats. During this time, we had purchased a Predators garden gnome and set it facing the Anaheim bench. Now, as you can imagine it certainly got looks. Corry Perry in particular couldn't take his eyes off the garden gnome. Might I suggest we invest in a garden gnome or two and set them up in the bench seats so that the gnome can continue to haunt Mr. Corry "cheapshot" Perry?
This is the what transpired in the box...
Perry got so creeped out that when he got back to the bench, he took one look at the gnome and he slammed the door as hard as he could to try to knock the gnome off and then when that didn't work, he refused to sit there again for the entire game. He literally motioned for someone else on his line to sit there instead of him.
Predators fans re-doubled the gnome effort, creating posters to disrupt Perry's pre-game skate:

Perry was held pointless in Game 6 in Nashville and, as they say, "the rest is history."

Here's hoping Getz, Perry and Kesler look more uncomfortable than they have the first three games of this series. One thing missing from Calgary is that edge this series. Getz looks like he's sitting poolside when he's on the bench most of the time (smiles, etc.). Have to make life miserable for these guys, as tough as it is with their size and our lack of on the top 6.
Leggooo Flames.

Would you by any chance be able to purchase a garden gnome to pass down to ice level behind the ANA bench??

I really really hope both Ferland and Bouma can go tonight. They will completely change the physical complexion of the Flames. I would love to see Kesler / Thompson / Stoner / Beauchemin get blown up by a few big hits.

With three so far, next goal for Bennett and Gaudreau will move them into the top 40 in Flames team history for playoff goals. Yes, already.

How good would Kevin Hayes look on Johnny's line against the Ducks?

I'm not upset. Just a little stalk-y. Kinda like a jilted ex girlfriend.
Seriously though, he's the exact player we really need right now. Oh well

No.
Might be a player one day, but not on Johnny's line. Not in the NHL

Spellcheck? Exact?
Anyway, why do you want Hudler away from Johnny? Even hurt he has more PO points so far.

Ok- I JUST went to the vending machine to get a bag of baked lays and they got stuck. So, as I was punching the machine, my money fell out, and I put it back in and I got TWO bags of baked lays instead of one.
This is a good omen. We shall overcome! We're going to have a marginal win tonight according to the Baked Lays Gods!
GO FLAMES GO!

whichever CPer is in proximity of the players benches has the duty of making sure a Flames gnome finds its way to the anaheim bench.
