Agreed. Sure, the Nucks have hemmed us in a few times, but I haven't counted very many quality scoring chances for them, other than hitting the post 4 times.

I totally believe the 17 scoring chances against. The Flames need to be much better in the third or the luck will run out.

Damn, Steve Simmons was such a hack even 30 years ago. What a jackass.

Kinda nice to hear the Flames described as "classy". There are far worse things to be known for.

Nieuwendyk mentioned right after he was drafted the 2nd call he got was from Simmons who asked him what it was liked being traded for Kent Nilsson, a 100 point player.

This thing where they get up and use props is so awkward.

I was pretty quick on the keyboard there and only saw the one replay from behind. But, I am telling the fiancé that I need a bigger tv so I can see plays better!

What was the point of having sticks for that Monahan segment? Just because?

BIG compliment to Johnny from Joe. He tunes in to see what Johnny is going to do. That's really high praise.

Still better than a bunch of has-beens sitting around a table trying to be GM's.

I love the new Sportsnet/CBC. They have fun and they focus on all the Canadian teams. TSN no longer relevant.

The sticks are gimmicky, but I enjoy the coverage. Miles better without Healy and Stock on the panel in my opinion.
