Wanna back that up with an avatar bet?

That's just half of the issue though, in my opinion. I have just as big of an issue with blatant penalties that the Flames draw that aren't called.

I really miss Langkow he's one of my favourite centers we've had, hope one of our rookie centers pans out like him!

Should have quoted...was commenting on our local hockey guru who was insulting someone by saying they loved Cammerlleri when he was with Calgary

seemed odd

hahaHAHAHA, you're a hilarious guy! Question, why are you only replying to me? Is it because you know I'm young, and don't have the greatest reputation, and am thus an easy target? Nice strategy.

'Very slow and lazy'... but he sticks up for his teammates. He was willing to take an ejection to spark his team in New York.

And I 'am in love with him'. I'm actually not in love with any hockey players. I just happen to be a fan of some who you deem 'weird' or 'odd' or 'stupid'. That's my own opinion. And you have a right to question it, yes, but that doesn't stop your questioning opinions from being stupid and ridiculous.

TL;DR: quit being an a##. I'm sorry that I'm not as smart as you. All that I have to say to you is this:

Pretty insane that the NHL's biggest network just openly talks about the league's vendetta against the Flames.

Yeah, maybe they should have pointed out the missed calls. That's why it's so easy for the officials to screw around. Sure, every call they made against the Flames is fine to the letter of the rules, but their way of officiating is so random and inconsistent they can get away with not calling obvious penalties or calling even the most minor of bumps. Do they even bother to review missed calls? Why do they only give one coaches challenge per game? If they are wrong in a call, then what's wrong with being able to review them all?

He started off great but has been average to bad for 2/3 of the season. If this team wants to compete they can't have old slow small players like Versteeg in the line up.

Not saying he's been terrible because he's been one of the better Flames on a lot of nights but I still don't want him on this team next year.

They should have made the refs watch every game and ask why the opposition didn't get the same penalties as the Flames doing the same thing. That is what bugs me more than the penalties on the Flames. It is the lack of calls on the opposition. But the NHL will continue to do whatever they want and deny anything.

I have asked myself this so many seasons. I am not even from Calgary. Then again, in my neck of the woods the local team would be Toronto and that would be way worse.
