Great player, but somewhat lousy teammate at times.

Eh. Pronger is the only defenseman in recent memory to win a Hart trophy and the guy repeatedly stomped on opposing players in the playoffs. If I'm Therrien Subban is one of the few guys not in my dog house right now, because that comeback was all him

San Jose. Pittsburgh. St. Louis. Vancouver. CALGARY!

At this point in time, we're among the elite in the league guys.

What comeback? Didn't Montreal lose the game? Subban took two stupid penalties that basically killed any comeback attempt. He played OK, still ended up -2 on the night. He is a great physical talent but does make a lot of boneheaded plays.

Brodie and Russell have both been very impressive considering they've jumped into #3 and #4 roles respectively in terms of TOI.

Brodie is even, and Russell is +2 now so far. Really, its Butler and O'Brien that look terrifying out there but I've been very impressed with our top 4 so far.

The 2 goals they scored.

So it's official, Glencross is the new whipping boy? Just want to make sure I'm irrationally picking on the right player.

Good win by the Flames. I sure hope Feaster does not trade Glencross any time this season. I think he is one of the fe players who are willing to stand in front of the net. I usually to love Gary Roberts and Joe Nieuwendyk blocking the goalie's view. Glencross didn't even flinched when Wideman shoot the puck. He just stand there blocking Price's view. I am glad he scored on that PP.

Joey Mac was awesome tonight. He even did some of Kipper save move there.

Monahan is not making the coaching and management decision easy. If he keeps up with his play, we might see him here in Calgary for the whole season. He have a knack for knowing where the puck is and also well aware of where the teammates are. I like this kid. His pass on Sven's goal was a veteran move.

I am glad Sven finally got his first goal tonight. This is his best game so far this season. He was involved in all facets of the game. Offensively and even defensively. The guy is willing to hit too.
Was Joe Colborne a healthy scratch? I don't think I even seen him play tonight. I missed half of the first period so I must missed him. I know I didn't seen him in the 2nd or 3rd period. Ben Street is starting to impress me. Too bad he might besend down when Cammalleri and Stajan gets healthy. I am sure other teams is noticing his play so if he goes on waiver again, someone might claim him.

Best veteran players so far are Jiri Hudler, Stempniak, Giordano and Wideman. Anyways we are still unbeaten in regulation periods. Keep it up boys!!

Of course I'm kidding haha. I'm just saying the Flames have six points. That's the same amount of points as the other teams I just listed.

At this moment, their one of the top teams in the league in terms of points.

Jacks · 10-09-2013, 10:34 PM

Watched the interviews in the locker room. P.K. impressed me when he took the blame for a stupid penalty at the end of the game, then about 2 seconds later he said he didn't want to blame the refs BUT!, what a classless POS.
