Considering the conferences for the flat earth people are in YEG, it's more than likely the two actually overlap.

It really doesn't get better than this for Flames fans. The team is so ####ing badly run.

If the earth was flat the ice wouldn’t be so tilted against the Oilers.

Guys....I think we are missing a very important candidate.

He was an Oilers hero, albeit not in the 80s.

Chris. Pronger.

Doooo it!!!

The other GMs should advise him that letting Chiarelli go was a mistake and they should rehire him. The reason he wasn't performing well was that he was not highly paid. Double his salary and you'll see immediate Stanley Cups.

Default Edmonton is No Good VI: Chia•den•freu•de

Do Lowe and/or MacTavish have any kids old enough to be considered? Have to think they’re at the top of the list.

They would know a thing or two about winning, after all.

The last game in the dome vs. the Oilers, everyone should chant "Free Connor."

Keegan Lowe is already in the organization, is 25-years-old, and has a tonne of professional hockey experience.

They just worked so hard at it this year.

Of all the things they sucked at they really knocked 'sucking' right out of the park.

And I use a baseball analogy because they're No Good at hockey.
