Following the Flames on Twitter and I see with each goal, Budweiser is giving fans free beer for a year. At this rate no one in Calgary will be sober.

I was really tough on Nordstrom early in the year....but he's been sneakily effective on the line with Backlund and Mangiapane.

I'd have no issue re-signing him as the forward we need for Expansion draft exposure requirements.

I wonder if the Flames will sign a slew of PTOs to fill out the roster again next year and force young talent to "marinade" in the minors, 12th place beckons again

it would be really funny if the canucks came back and this goal challenge dropped them a few spots in the lottery

Why don't both teams just pull the goalies?

6 on 6 beer league style, final score 23-19 Calgary

I'm talking about putting up these points in these meaningless games. It's shinny hockey out there.

I'm really not sure what Tkachuk is going forward. All I know is that his next contract scares me.

Much rather him than Ritchie.

Ritchie is a good 4th liner...not his fault he was in the top six half the season

The two clubs should've used this week as goalie-less set and worked to to get Boeser and Gaudreau past McDavid for the scoring lead.

Interesting Sutter has Ruzicka killing the penalty.

Seeing if he can handle a bottom 6 job next season.

I don't want Nordstrom OR Ritchie back. There are better options in the dumpster dive market.

Leivo, on the other hand, I could justify re-signing.

I have to agree just because they would remind me of this season.

The depth forwards this year have kinda been like the 1985 cast of SNL.

No one is saying Rathbone is going to be the best player in franchise history, Kelly

Love him but he’s been saying the weirdest things lately like saying a goalie should never get injured if they stretch enough

960 also talked about the Flames making a side deal to protect Gio potentially, because of his play down the stretch with Tanev.

Are we really going to give up assets to make sure we retain a 38 year old? I hope not.

Hathaway was essentially the good parts of Ritchie with the good parts of Nordstrom and Treliving loved placing him on waivers every season, and eventually letting him walk to Washington’s benefit

I’m mentally prepared to lose a second to keep Gio

Not saying it’s right, just saying it’s totally what this franchise is going to do

Eff off Sportsnet. Flames and Canucks. None of us give a rats ass about McSqueegee. God I hate this network and their fellation of the Grease.
