Scorpion hasn't started the GDT yet! Much disappoint.

In other news, Gully said each of the vets is getting 4 games in preseason. I like that.

Yes! Gully looks to be correcting a lot of mistakes he made last preseason. I know there was a bit of a feeling out process last year but some of his decision making raised a lot of eyebrows at the time. All signs are pointing towards a solid start to the season but until that happens I will continue to temper my expectations.

Does anyone know if the game will be available to people in Ontario? I can't remember what happened last year, but the Flames website says "in-market only due to broadcast restrictions"

No, the game won't be available in Ontario. I doubt its even in the Flames NHL region (Sask). I think its just Alberta.

I want to know what they mean by broadcast restrictions because they sure as heck weren't in play as recently as 2015 and nothing has changed in regards to rules or contracts. All that has changed is the NHL hosts the site (I believe).

Any media types around that can shed some light on this for me? Thanks!

My computer's operating system completely corrupted last night along with all of my GDT files, so it'll take me a couple hours to reinstall Windows 10 and get said files up before I can create one. Also, I want to see what the lineups are first before I make the GDT.

Someone on HF said yesterday that the Oilers would have it on their YT channel.

Both games are set for 7:00 p.m. MT starts and will be streamed on CalgaryFlames.com (in-market only due to broadcast restrictions).

Do they leave the games up for a bit? I'd like to watch one, then maybe watch the other tomorrow.

Twitter user @MacSapintosh has a great project going - #bestshapeproject - to track league-wide fitness cliches.


All we need is someone to start a "something to prove" project.

Probably, and I hope Tanner Glass is one of the first ones cut and that is no pun intended.

The guys who aren't playing tonight are supposed to be on the ice now. I'd bet most of them will be sent home later today or tomorrow.

No, San Juan de Limay, I think it was a 4-5 hour drive north of Managua.
I had pretty good luck with the internet and power while I was in the city there.
