Sorry Don, not trying is what Calgary has done for the last 2 or 3 years. You are late again.

Bringing up all the kids to fight each other for a job is definitely trying. We could have just given up again and let the vets skate around aimlessly to earn a paycheque and said how the state of (insert excuse here) made it impossible to do anything else like we did before, but we aren't.

No way, CBC is obsessing on the Leafs again. That NEVER happens!

Personally I'd be happy our young guys are capable of netting us some wins, but sad because we'd lose out on a better pick.
I'd be really happy. The pick in the end doesn't matter that much. If it's super important? They maneuver with trades but draft picks are a crapshoot anyways.

It's impossible to move to 9th or 10th anyways. NHL standings hardly have any movement due to conference schedule and loser point. Kids will play well but they won't run the table.

The Oilers are hoping to run the table just to move from 10th to 8th. Winnipeg almost has to run the table to make 3 points.

That's his schtick, he's been doing it 30 years.

I hope the Leafs go out in the first round so the cbc commentators will talk about something else.

Backlund was the best player on the ice in the first.

Now on pace for 22 goals and 44 points

Healy makes fun of Calgary on a shift when I score...and I'm pretty sure you predicted the Oilers to be awesome this year like the rest of those dumb asses

That was literally the worst intermission panel I have ever seen. The Leafs were mentioned more times than incorrect statements about the game were made.

Healy is a ####ing trainwreck with a microphone.

Elliotte Friedman comes in to try and restore some professionalism and gets no response.

They're not even in the same universe. You think Calgary was desperately in need of a rebuild... the HNIC panel needs to be burned to the ground.

If Friedmann got lured to Sportsnet, he would improve an already decent panel and CBC would die.

I just wanted to log in and say that hearing 3 young, Flames draft picks combine for the opening goal was pretty damn cool
