'Hawks are down to 11 forwards...Entwistle is out. I suspect Kane and DeBrincat will take turns double shifting.

In the second round and beyond, Cuthbert can do all the Flames series as the only surviving Canadian team.

Nice. Make 'em pay, Flames!

[Monahammer]

Wow damn real glad ras looks ok

[KootenayFlamesFan]

At least Kane checked to see if Rasmus was ok. I respect that. That could have been really ugly.

[chummer]

Yikes

[Bonded]

Oh man, that was real close to really bad for Andersson

[Monahammer]

Wow lindy is not going to miss that often.

[Bonded]

If Toffoli and Jarnkrok can get going in the playoffs, Flames will be scary

[Strange Brew]

You can tell Ball is not in the building. Which is too bad, it really reduces the value of PBP.

What exactly is the reason?

Put ‘em on all the equipment you want but keep them off the jerseys.

I will be livid when/if they end up on jerseys.

Get ready, it's less than 6 months away.

They said earlier that a few of the SN crew tested positive for COVID

Seems like an odd thing to get your panties in a twist about.

I cringe when I see logos on jerseys where the colour scheme of the logo and the jersey clash. The big red "R" for raukuten on the GS Warriors jersey for example. Remember how much we all hated the clash of the Albertan flag? Now imagine it's the green-and-blue Telus logo sitting right there above the flaming C. Gross, blech.

If you're gonna go for the sponsorship dollars, discount the price and caveat it with the fact that the logo will be recolored to match with the jersey, with white and black being the most-favored colors so as not to interfere too much with branding.

[getbak]

Whoa, that inside the scoreboard view is weird.

[KootenayFlamesFan]

Shots are 24-7 for the Flames. Let's put a few more in and blow this open.

I don’t think not wanting to have sponsorship logos on the jerseys is that odd to get butt hurt about.

I actually find it odd to not get mad about that.

I would find it tacky and lame to have Pizza Hut on the Flames jersey.

How can you find that as no big deal?

So we are supposed to buy $300 jerseys that a) have marketing logos on them or b) don’t look like the game worn jerseys because they don’t have the logos on them.

That seems so dumb.

I wasn't one of those people. Further I much preferred those jerseys over the current home jerseys.

[direwolf]

Score should be at least 6-1 Flames by now. They're all over them.

[thefoss1957]

Meh...it is sad, but, accountants have taken over sports, and "increasing revenue streams" to maximize already obscene profit is the order of the day.

[Yobbo]

So close!
