Pretty sure their standard home reds. Don't think they'll be wearing the retros at all unfortunately.

Flying into Calgary in 4 hours, jersey packed and ready to go. Go flames go!

That's disappointing

[Brewmaster]

Do we know who is starting in goal for the Flames yet? I didn't see any news since the split game against the Oilers.

[Bonded]

My mood:

[Coach]

Boris is ready.



Give me some PURPLE

I want the retros, but I'll accept just watching the Flames.

Please, Flames, give me a ####ing win.
And then another.
And then another.
Win the Cup so this ####ty year can be remembered for something good. And FFS use Bennett well.

Sorry to hear that. I hope they come through for you and kickstart things in a new direction. Here's to massively better times ahead.


While I've done some great things this year to offset covid its been the loneliest summer I can remember and my mental health has dipped this week. Some new good times are sorely needed as well as a boost of faith in things in general. It would be great to start with my hockey team.


GFG.

I need, NEED to be able to bust out the moonwalking pony tonight. 5-3 Flames.

So excited for this.

You must be excited to be able to drive in two years!

[Coach]

I wish hockey players were a bit less humble sometimes.

"Johnny, you don't have the big hits, how can you get the team excited?"

"By dancing around their D and sniping bar-down. Next."

I think Johnny is more likely to lay a big hit than snipe anything bar-down. His shot is still a muffin.

I mean that muffin netted 36 last year.

But yes a lot of shuffleboardesque squeakers through the pads.

Accuracy is a thing.

I know things can change, but this is a mistake.

Lucic - Bennett - Dube would be the smart choice.

The top 9 as it is drawn up there has continually shown to fail at getting emotionally engaged early in games. Getting Bennett into it early would be the smart decision.

Oh hey, my favorite Johnny Gaudreau flames goal.

Oh hey, it was late in a playoff game at a key moment.

You don't say.

[topfiverecords]

Jankowski better be out. Rinaldo better be in. We need his size, energy and effort.

[MrMike]

Gaudreau will lay the big hit.

Lucic will snipe top shelf.

Tkachuk will make a big save with 2 minutes remaining in the game.

But isn't Jankowski a staple on our PK?

I'd take Rieder out for Rinaldo myself.
