My Lil Flames Fan

[JonDuke]

This is my youngest spawn. Her older brother likes hockey but is more interested in Minecraft
This one, however, truly loves the Flames like her Daddy. I haven't brought her to a game cause I'm not sure she'd sit through it, but she loves watching on TV and hearing the players names.
She's 5 and makes me incredibly proud, so I thought I'd share

[HockeyKhan]

So awesome jonduke

[btimbit]

Nice!

That's why I love pre-season games, they're cheap so if a kid can't make it the whole game who cares. But my boy is 5 now and he lasts whole games without wanting to leave.

[Believer]

This makes me want to have kids.

My favourite part was how she said Jokipakka. Cute vid.

[FBI]

Pushaw you were giving her the cheat flash cards behind the scenes weren't you

That's fun, my 4 year old hasn't lasted through a period yet with me so this gives me hope that she goes hardcore in a year.

That is usually the first name she says when not prompted. She thinks it's fun to say.

I totally thought she was going to throw a Widedog out there. Great video man, very cute.

My 5 year old has no interest in hockey yet. Maybe if they put cats on skates she says she'll watch.

[Minnie]

The Stajan moves were my favorite, lol.

[smiggy77]

Haha absolutely awesome!!!

[bc-chris]

that's fantastic!

we had the flames first home game of this season on tv. it was on mute as they were doing player introductions and as johnny skated onto the ice, out of the blue my 3 year old blurts out, "there's johnny!!!!"
my wife looked at me with 'that look'.... you know... the 'seriously... you're teaching our 3 year old who all the players are' look
i just started laughing becuz she recognized him all on her own - i was so proud!

[Cali Panthers Fan]

The impromptu dance moves are the best part.

[devo22]

haha that's awesome! Bonus points for not mentioning Dave Cameron

[sleepingmoose]

My kid started sitting through games a year ago when he was four. You should give her a try at the Dome, she'd probably love it and want to stay till the very end!
Or give it a test and take her to the Super Skills competition.

[transplant99]

Awesome.

Maybe take her to the Superskills? Not as long as a full game, obviously all the focus on the individual players.
