I then think to myself, should I, a) go out to the car and get my Flames cap and come back and tell him " you are No good and you joined the Nogoodenest team of the whole league", b) ask him if he could get me Connor's autograph, C) stay sitting and enjoy that double scoop of salted carmel and maple pecan, on a waffle cone, mmm that was damn good ice cream.

High enough to not realize he was just sitting in his van in a parking lot the whole time.

Have been out of high school over thirty years, so sorry don't need your infantile jokes.


When Smith first came to the Flames there were stories that he had bought a home in Calgary and had plans to live there with his family, so how hard is it to believe that he would be in Calgary, one of the main reasons him and Talbot signed with the teams they picked and probably didn't get lots of offers, they wanted to stay close to their families, Talbot kept his home in Edmonton and his family is staying there. I don't live in Calgary but Village ice cream at Britannia Plaza https://www.britanniaplaza.com/store...age-ice-cream/ seemed pretty busy for a weekday and not that nice weather, and it had very good ice cream. Having Smith's mask with his kids on it and seen interviews with him didn't take much to recognize him, and google pictures of his wife and family to make sure it was them, didn't try to lookup his dog but it was a little darker color dog.


So laugh away at my funny post again.

You either leave him alone or if you did actually make eye contact just give him a nod and say Good luck in Edmonton sincerely, then let him and his family be.

Pressing into your mid-40s to 50 (ditto) should have given you a modicum of maturity.

The real travesty in this whole conversation is that no one got my Cheech & Chong reference.

And watching him over rotate on those shots makes me thankful he's in Edmonton now.

Not sure how this explains the meandering first post but OK.

I didn't see a Flame logo. But I saw a Sen logo so maybe both Tkachuks?

I’m pretty pumped Smith is playing for the oilers.

Potato for sure, just can't quite tell if it's a Yukon Gold or a Russet.

Smith has some of the worst movement and positioning of any goalie with such a long tenure I've ever watched. His bread and butter has been his athleticism and quick reactions but lord.. he just moves terribly. So happy we moved on.

That's 100% the Tkachuk brothers, La Brier Family Arena. Out there training with Gary Roberts.
