Appreciating the art of the craft is not pretentious and requires no apology
Forgetting said craft though...

Mangiapane - Backlund - Lindholm
Lucic - Bennett - Dube
Gaudreau - Monahan - Ryan
Quine - Jankowski - Reider
That’s what I want to see. Very little chance, I know.

Yeah. We’ve been down this road before with injuries in the playoffs. Super vague when really we all know that something is more serious than speculated. It seems hockey does that more than any other sport and it’s super annoying.

In baseball, guys go on the 15-day DL with a hangnail. THAT'S annoying.

When you come to a fork in the road, take it.
It's like déjà vu all over again.
You can observe a lot by just watching.
No one goes there nowadays, it’s too crowded.
If you don't know where you are going, you'll end up someplace else.
The future ain't what it used to be.
Always go to other people's funerals, otherwise they won't come to yours.
Baseball is ninety percent mental and the other half is physical.
A nickel ain't worth a dime anymore.

Anxiously awaiting puck drop.
Perhaps a couple of wee drams from Laphroaig, along the way, to enhance the enjoyment of Flames winning game six.

Well, it’s his brain. It actually rebounded from normal position to the front of his skull to the back and then back to normal position.
That’s a lot of trauma and a lot of nasty symptoms.
Not pleasant and coming back early dramatically increases the chances of him incurring another one.

I’m praying to baby Jesus for a full out effort tonight, but I’ve been down this road before. I still have Pat Falloon and Ray Whitney burned into my psyche. Same with Pavel Bure.
Please prove me wrong.

Surely, we should expect more than Zero 5v5 points combined, 5 games into the first round, from the top line.
That’s unacceptable! And frankly, I don’t give a poop what the fancy stats say.
Produce!
Stand up, sit down, or get out of the way!

Anyone else dreading the inevitable “no lineup changes for the Flames. Same lines and pairs as game 5” ?? Prove me wrong Ward!
