We should probably us 40 as the benchmark not 30. Cheese, Transplant and Locke are are all close to 80.

I was 20 when I made my account, but I lurked for a good 5+ years before that.

There appears to be quite a bit of variation as to Tacoman Jr's weight. Hockey DB has him at 178 but Elite Prospects has him at 190, as does the University of Denver's own roster page. So I would assume it's the latter. Gotta credit the hard work. Always cool to see consistent progression even into the mid-early 20s. He earned his larger role on the team.

Aww....those Denver Omelettes man...they just slaughter ye ol' waistline.

He is a victim of tacos and omelettes just like the rest of us. God help his cholesterol!

Congrats Tacoman!

It is also worth noting that fans of this organization can really respect and love the hard-working, high-character types! Patterson, Yelle, Nystrom, Bouma.. and Coleman, whom you compared your son to. I love Coleman, and I really believe that the Flames wouldn't be where they are today in the standings if it wasn't in large measure for what he brings on and off the ice. He has been relentless from the get-go. I have opined on what I want to see the Flames do in terms of off-season moves, but never once have I stated that either Backlund or Coleman should be going anywhere. Reading up on Taco Jr. just makes me smile knowing that we will most likely end up watching and loving yet another relentless, hard-working contributor on and off the ice. That's what your post made me think about, and it really did make me smile. Can't wait to cheer him on!

So...if he ends up playing a playoff game and scoring and someone throws a taco onto the ice...is that considered a 'hate crime' or a form of endearment?

Asking for a friend.

Why can’t he end up like another college free agent the Flames signed that was great at faceoffs and won a cup here. Joel Otto

The Geriatric C of Red!

We'll all be downtown on our Rascals shaking our canes!

And our shirts will be off! But not for Kiprusoff, just due to the natural decay of the human physiology.

It shall be a grim scene!

At least you’ll be naked a brand new arena with your cane.
