Default What Are You Looking Forward to Most For the 17/18 Season?

What's making you super eager for the season to start?

For me, I really, really want to see how Hamonic does on our roster. I think he and Brodie are going to hit it off.

Winning $1 million in the Safeway score and win a contest when Jagr scores five goals in a game.

Hoping for competent goaltending. I miss watching a shot against without the anticipatory cringe

Now that Emile Porier has his life back on track, i'm super excited to see what he shows in training camp and pre season games. He could become that scoring winger we so desperately need.

Watching the Oilers miss the playoffs, showing all the pundits they are still building something special up north.

Good start to the season
Bennett taking it to a new level.
Gio and Hamilton competing for the Norris.
TJ Brodie wheeling and dealing, given his new sidekick.
Mike Smith having his best year ever at age 35.
Johnny and Mony making people forget about players named McJesus and Drysaddle.
Troy Brouwer earning at least 50% of his salary.
Jaromir Fricken Jagr
Glen Gulutzan victory celebration punches.
Tkachuk having a sophomore surge.
Flames going 5-0 against the Oil.

Other than that, not much.

Give some of the kids a chance to get better accustomed to the NHL game during the regular season. I'd like to see the Flames go on an extended playoff run. Injuries happen, so the more experience the kids get could play dividends.

Depth matters.

Who gives a #### about the Oilers? I look forward to the Flames establishing themselves as legitimate contenders.

The first game. The first game of the season is always the best one.

To start off with some jump and confidence in their game, win or lose.
