  1. Yet another great job on the GDT RocDoc...   Thanks for putting it together...   +1's...   Image result for Beer Clinking Emoji

     

    Flames need to win this one tonight and increase the point spread on the Coilers...   Speaking of which, I hope that they get slaughtered on the scoreboard and into the boards by the Av's tonight...   They Oil need to be taken back down a couple of notches...

     

    Go Flames!!!

  2. Not the best effort from the Flames for playing a discipled game as there were a number of mistakes, but they still  won 9 - 5, on a back to back game...   They still did a lot of things right, more than enough to balance out the mistakes...

     

    The refs sucked, but it seems like all too often, that is to be expected...

     

    Last but not least...   The Oilers were on the receiving end of a beatdown from their top rival that had just played the night before...   The Oil gave it their best effort, and it wasn't even close to being enough...   That should let some air out of their tires, as the seeds of doubt were once again planted, watered and given plenty of sunshine...

    Important game tonight, and it's one that the Flames really need to win for a few reasons...   I expect that we will see a hard fought battle from both sides, the way a BOA is meant to be played, and I also expect the Flames to be another 2 points ahead in the Pacific when it's over...

     

    Go Flames!!!

  7. Thanks for keeping the GDT's alive Roc Doc...   It's much appreciated, and + 1's...

     

    The Flames should win this one tonight, and I will be expecting a good effort from the team in order to make that happen...

     

    Yeah, I know it's been a while...   But I'm still kickin' around and cheering for my team as always...   It's a long story...

    I could find no mention anywhere about why it was down.  I also tried to email (moderators@calgaryflames.com) and it bounced back.

     

    The site had a virus...   Pretty sure that it was the Wuhan virus and the site had to be quarantined...   Good to see that it recovered, and lives to see another season...

    Pretty concerning article. Don't get me wrong you have to have by in and it starts in the defensive zone. I have no problem with that philosophy. 

     

    But to hear him say how they played in the playoffs is the blueprint for how they want to play going forward is very concerning. Parts of it were good and stressing details in the defensive zone is much needed but if they plan to be that soft, conservative, collapse everything down to the middle team i think they are going to be in big trouble. Did not work for them in the playoffs so I really struggle why people seem to think it's a strategy worth building off of. 

     

    I said the article was interesting...   and the sarcasm was intended...   I didn't say I agreed with it...   Parts of it made good sense, but other parts were definitely cause for concern...

     

    re bolded:...   As I have mentioned before,,,   Sometimes Wardo fails to see problems that should be obvious...   and what is even worse, is even after  he thinks about it over a substantial period of time, he intentionally repeats the mistakes...

    Why i'm so disappointed to hear Ward has no plans to change the philosophy. How they played in the playoffs is not how this team should be playing. 

     

    Sometimes it seems that Wardo is a slow learner...   I hope I'm wrong and he starts to show he can start to learn from his mistakes more quickly than he has so far, but that said I also have my doubts that he will last until the end of his contract if he continues to make mistakes by making poor decisions on basic things that should have been covered in coaching 101 class...

    I did not realize this, but he was the brother of a girl Gretzky was dating and Gretzky approached Sather about offering him a job.  Must have been a dream come true for a hockey fan.  For all the Oiler fans out there, he was genuine.  Big loss to that team and their fans.

     

    That's right, Gretz was 20 at the time, and dating Moss's sister Vikki...   and whenever we saw him throughout all those years, Joey Moss looked like he loved every minute he spent with both the Oil and the Eskimos...

    Well, the Oilers let AA walk.

    They did re-sign Poolparty, which could just be in advance of a trade.

    Cheap 2 year deal at $1.175m

    Not like he is a top player, but it's interesting that he did sign.

     

    I think the Oil have Puljujarvi talked into having another run to see if he can stick around this time...   They need a guy with a cheap cap hit, and probably sold him on getting put in a better position to succeed this time around...

     

    Maybe I'm wrong, but I think that he still has potential...   If we could have picked him up for cheap when everyone's feathers were still ruffled, I would not have minded if the Flames had have taken a gamble...

     

    As for Athanasiou, that will still be worth some laughs for a while...

    Good to see the Oilers in the spotlight again

     

    As often happens, it's not for the right reasons that they would like to be in the headlines for...

    Question, isn't self-quarantine mandatory after a positive?  I hope for a complete recovery, just seems like dumb wording in a press release.

     

    it is, for both points...

     

    and ya gotta wonder about this guys immune system, he has been catching the flu, etc, fairly often over the last few years...   and this probably won't help with that kind of thing either...

     

    No doubt he is getting top notch medical help, and he will be back to annoy us before the beginning of the season...   I'm sure everyone here wishes him a speedy recovery...
