Pike runs some blog I think, maybe that's what he meant

Scorp is doing some writing over at FlamesNation.

Pike has been my editor over at FN for the last few months. It's been a nice outlet to get some bylines with little else to do in COVID times.

I refuse to call myself "media" out of principle, at least not until I open Photoshop for the first time in my life, but I've had the opportunity to do a fair number of interviews with players and management folks both for FN and other ventures. Just dabbling in different things before I feel confident about going back to school, trying to maintain and improve some skills.

Haynes says Parsons might not be ready for camp. If this is the case, maybe Wolf does come to camp. I anticipate they'll want to have six goalies there (three groups, two in each)

I've been following Flamesnation for a while now and have been reading some of your articles. They've been good reads. Thanks for your time on those!

I won't pretend to know or understand your situation, but just wanted to say that some of the best advice I ever received was to leap into school with both feet and figure more out while there. But sounds like you're honing good skills so kudos

I would agree with you but I've been recovering from a bit of a health situation for much of the last year (a condition that primarily took me out of university in the first place) and, for the purposes of the program I'm interested in, I would prefer to wait until in-person learning is fully back before committing again.

Parsons is rehabbing another injury, that's not good.

I’ve been reading a few of your articles over there and like them. I just don’t seem to find time for podcasts which is too bad because you’ve lined up some. nice guests.

According to Valji, Sparks will be ready to go for the start of camp.

Salim Nadim Valji
@salimvalji
Further to the news that former Toronto Maple Leafs goalie Garret Sparks has signed a Professional Try Out with the Calgary Flames - which I believe was broken by @RyanNPike - I can confirm that Sparks is in Calgary right now & should be at Flames' training camp starting Jan 3.
