IIRC,
Irving had cancer as a kid and was treated with a long dose of chemotherapy, after which his hair was never quite the same.

(can't find article where he blames his frizzy hair on that)

They ran out of hair for a transplant and made the unfortunate decision to use Velcro...

For me this is more a statement game than any other game the Flames have had this season. Historically (with the exception of Edmonton) the Flames usually seem to throw up a dud against inferior competition. For that reason I am going to say they lose 3-2, hopefully I am wrong.

I like 5:00 starts. Work until 5. Takes about 20 minutes to get home. PVRing the game. Allows me to skip at least the fist "brown bananas".

I think that Mike was definitely coming into form. His pass to Glencross on the power play goal was a very high skill play. Hope it is minor, and he plays tonight.

My prediction, 2-0 Flames.
Irving stops all 22 shots.
Tangy and Glencross.

Going to be interesting to see if the teams psyche has changed at all with the new coaching staff and philosophies. Historically, we have always played down to other teams levels, and played up to others.

This is the first "bad" team we have played. Lets see if they play down to them.

The Oilers don't count as that is a rivalry. I guess the Avs could count, and while that 3rd was bad, we generally outplayed them.
