3-20-2-3 since 1994 is what I could find season openers.

Go Flames Go!

I’ll be there with my bag of rotten vegetables in hand ready to hurl its contents at the players to show my displeasure with the all-but-guaranteed poor results. They wanna play like garbage and garbage is what they’re gonna get.

I also plan to shout expletives at any children I see in jets gear.

GFG! I'm near Edwards AFB right now, I'd say "down the jets" but the MPs may get a whiff and come knocking on my door.... lol

I'm going to be in Vegas tonight, can anyone recommend a good sports bar at or near the MGM Grand where I can catch the game? TIA

1-10-2 since 2010. Lost 12 straight from 2010 to 2021. Then we finally won last year’s opener. Rest of the season was all downhill from there.

Not all heroes wear capes, unless you will be wearing a cape then I say you you are the hero we don't deserve.

I have no doubt that we will start a new streak this year.

We can do 13 straight.

Throw canned food at them its cheaper and will hurt more.

We actually started 5-1 before losing to Edm in OT - the game where Sutter said Huby was taking a #### or something… from there it was all downhill for sure lol

Thought for the first year or so here that GFG = Good ####ing Game

So good ####ing game everyone! My expectations aren't very high but hope to see at least a more energized and less dysfunctional group than what we saw last year.

Alright first game of another season and it should be a pivotal one for the franchise. Based on how it has gone with this organization over the last 8-9 years it should be a good season ahead which has typically followed a previously disappointing season. That was typically how the Gaudreau/Chucky Flames would respond but what about the Huberdeau/Kadri Flames?

After 6 months without meaningful games this is always an exciting part of the year. Hopefully the Flames can bounce back and give us a reason to cheer for the next 6 months plus

Lets go!!!! I'm excited for a new season and some new hope (even if it's tempered hope). I'm excited to see what this team can do with Coronato, Duehr, Sharangovich, and Greer. I hope Pelletier makes a hug impact when he's healthy and I hope goaltending becomes a position of strength. Will I ever learn?



Go Flames Go!!!!!!!

Season openers were the new Honda Center... until last year. Win tonight and it's a streak.

4-3 Flames. Starting to come together Pepper.

I might feel better if the Flames are 2-3-2 after 7 games than if they're 5-1-1.

So good to have flames hockey back, I missed my 3am starts in the summer. Going to need a few games to get things gelling but feel we are on for a good season. Listening to Huska interviews gives me a lot of confidence.
