10 games into the 2019-20 season there are some questions for this year's Calgary Flames. For one, is the lineup good enough? There were essentially no changes, minus James Neal, who is leading the league in goals, and a couple of other Oilers cast offs. But that's...

Well how about that secondary scoring? The Flames have been missing lines 3 and 4 in the past week but a challenge by the coach over the weekend seems to have temporarily changed things. As the top line looks about average, the 3rd line stepped in over the past two...

Back in the win column for the Calgary Flames after taking a beating in a 3 game road swing through the Southern US. Las Vegas featured a blowout, San Jose another loss. The team was floundering, looking for some sense of effort and rhythm. It doesn't help that the...

Avalanche 6 - Flames 2 The Flames were embarrassed at home in Game 2. Poor effort and the Stars thoroughly outplayed. Well in Game 3 they completely folded. Yes, the referees handed Colorado a 2-0 lead. After that the wheels fell off. Little response from the top...
