Amazing job rd, can't thank you enough for:

a.) being a Flames fan

b.) the amazing stuff you do here!!

 

Looks like you've run outta real estate Saymzies.

Minny, should have known. I like Minny people, they treated me fantastic in my working stint there, I was cheering them to have a better fate than constant disappointment. I went with my heart over head. Expected more from Fleury. Not a Kyrou fan but love Thomas.

No way I wasn't taking Kaprizov though. Love that player.

How long before we suspend all Russian visas? Half-kidding.lol

I'll second the sentiments toward RD!

Yeah, I dare say I'll be falling fairly quickly. Hedging my bets here, while effective early was always going to hurt after round 1.

We miss rocket doctor though!!!

A Flames cat in the UK does all of these threads. It's 6:54am there, so maybe we'll see him for breakfast!!lol

Absolutely! He deserves numerous thumbs up for his work. I hope he is as pumped as the rest of us.

It's 1:40am EST for me. This run is gonna suck for my sleep sked. Blockchain my sleep sked, this is amazing.

Oh man that’s epic but amazing at the same time! Unfortunately that’s going to suck until we run the Oil away and more.

A little easier in Alberta.

Lou and COnundrumed are 2 hours later.

11:00 game finish here.

I’ll admit it almost got a bit teary here just over the moon with the performance and the continual effort to get to the net and throw pucks to the net. Just happy as F#!k to get that one and bring those guys from north. 

[Playoffs GDT Stars @ FLAMES - Game 7 - Sunday 15 May 2022]

I have no idea how you all are coming down from this late at night.. it’s still 3:30pm here and I’m not sure I’ll be in bed before midnight. 
 

just speechless. 

[Playoffs GDT Stars @ FLAMES - Game 7 - Sunday 15 May 2022]

Holy hell! That was tough to watch at work. Threw my Chucky jersey on and had to leave and watch OT with a beer… guess I’ll have a few more.  🎉🍻. Have an enjoyable night all. 

[Playoffs GDT Flames @ Stars - Game 4 - Monday 9 May 2022]

I've decided to work from home today so I can tune in and see a bit more of the game than usual, given it's an 11:30 am game here today - Midday when they play at the dome.

 

Rocking the home Chucky today as the away Johnny hasn't been of much luck for me. 🔥 🔥  🔥 GFG

Thanks for the GDT RocDoc, always appreciated.

Probably a thread better placed in the NHL and Hockey Talk section? Quiet literally a league topic. 

[No Flames gear for me!]

A massive shoutout to @Heartbreaker who mailed this absolute beauty to me. Beers are on me next time I'm in CGY! 🍻

 I mean it isn't hard to open some microphones for game sounds.. anything is better than silence.

 

 

I can now here some sort of sound and a goal buzzer.

Pretty slack coverage.

No audio.

Leafs get national TV coverage, Nuck game won't even spring for a radio broadcast.

Thank you so much! I emailed customer services but the reply might have been I don't know 😂 

You could try StubHub closer to the time, the tickets are a bit more expensive due to them generally being resale from ticket holders who aren't able to attend. They also cater for most sporting events if you plan on seeing anything else.

Thought I would treat myself to a Flames hoodie andspread the word in the UK..  Especially as there was a good deal in the Flames store 😁

But $50 for shipping international.  Wow is it really that expensive to post or can they just not be bothered with international orders?

 

Not too sure if the product cost and shipping will be less but you could try https://shop.international.nhl.com/. I usually use https://www.fanatics.com/ and the shipping is International Expedited 4-10 Days ($24.95) 

[Darryl Sutter new head coach]

Wow, I wonder if management reads these boards after all!

 

I feel bad seeing this after a win, but at least it shows Tre has seen enough.  We’ll see how Sutter does though. He’s an old school, crash and bang coach. Not sure this is a Sutter team.

I’m interested to see what this means for Benny.
 

As mentioned Sutter likes the big physical bodies and Benny is that, was it a war do issue and can Sutter convince him to stay and play that role and at C or is it too far gone and Benny still wants out. 

[Goaltending]

With Elliott having an individual 10 game win streak, does anyone know what the Flames record is? 

[Goaltending]

Blues acquire goalie Anders Nilsson from Oilers in exchange for minor league goalie Niklas Lundstrom and a 5th round pick this year. Depth move from the blues or something else in the works?
