				Happy 21st Birthday Johnny Gaudreau! 
			 
			
			
			Happy Birthday Johnny Hockey!
Look forward to seeing him in the Flaming C again in September! 
As part of the festivities, I think we should all marvel at the absurd skill of one of our Flames' most promising prospects:

Huge props to our very own Anthony Cook (AC) for his awesome videos.
And one more... Gaudreau's Hobey Baker highlights:

			I'm glad he's a Flame already, but I do feel for him that he never got to experience Mary Ann's bar as an adult. So many great memories from that place from my BC days. Though I'm sure he experienced things at every house party that most of us could only dream of.

			Re-watching those first NHL game highlights, it's hard not to get excited for this team's future. What strikes me is how smart he was positionally in that game, especially coming back on defence. That and how he keeps pucks alive in the offensive zone.

I asked in the poll request thread for a poll to be added to this thread.

Johnny scores his toe drags, or at least makes it a scoring chance.

For Gaudreau, the toe drag is a tool, an arrow in his quiver.
  
 For Eberle and the Oilers, it is a lifestyle.
