Gary Leeman was garbage in games AND couldn't break a plate to save his life.

I mean he got booed at the skills competition. Struggler.

If anyone is planning on purchasing tickets for the Skills competition the Calgary Flames are offering an opportunity for our minor hockey team to raise a few extra bucks. By using offer code MH47 when you purchase tickets the Flames will provide us with $4 of the $10 ticket prices.

It won't be a big money maker for us but every little helps.

Thanks

interesting, I didnt know "Skating as fast as you can and hammering your knee in to the boards" was going to be a competition...Bouma should win this easily.

Apparently Boomer and Rhett Warrener are coaching this thing, but I haven't seen rosters out at all yet.

In case anyone is still planning on purchasing tickets for the Skills competition the Calgary Flames are offering an opportunity for our minor hockey team to raise a few extra bucks. By using offer code MH47 when you purchase tickets the Flames will provide us with $4 of the $10 ticket prices.

I don't know how many tickets have been sold with our offer code but hopefully this opportunity is good for a bit of money towards our season.

Thanks

The last one, a few years ago, was pretty short. 1.5 hours or so I think. They did the various skills and followed it up by a shoot out with the whole team. I don't recall if they played a short game or not.

Is this being streamed anywhere? I'm in Vancouver and would love to watch. I'm guessing probably not.

Backlund shot 103.3 mph!
Ferland shot 103.2 mph.

Gio and Dougie both over 100 mph as well.
