NHL Officiating Takes a Dive: Calgary 1 – NY 0

If you want evidence of NHL officials taking pre-game bribes then this game was Exhibit A. Well, maybe not, but the referees were horrid. Multiple breakaways and ensuing trips that lead to no calls was the MO of tonight's officials. Did they take away opportunities?...

Calgary 3 – Vancouver 2

There haven't been many wins against the Canucks over the years, but every single one is glorious. Beating the most hated franchise in any professional sport is pure bliss. A solid win for the good guys in a Pacific Division rivalry. Calgary and Vancouver are now dead...

The Truck Keeps Rolling: Calgary 3 – SJ 1

Who do thought that at the beginning of the season come beginning of February the Calgary Flames would be sent in second and the Pacific division? Not I, not the pundits, not nobody. What do you think about it this lineup lacks the superstar, doesn't have a prolific...

Come From Behind #9

Calgary Beats Edmonton Yet Again. It must be brutal being an Edmonton Oilers fan. The team had a two goal third period lead, but as we all know by now, third periods are a kind of specialty for the Flames. Four unanswered third period goals and you have a league...

Calgary Flames Drop Crucial Winnable Game to Minnesota

Calgary had a chance to prove they were a playoff caliber team, even an 8th place team, but still, but they showed they're the same old tired Flames. A couple of moments where you thought they'd get in close and score (Byron breakaway), but ultimately they never...

Flames Return for 4-1 Win Over Buffalo

The Calgary Flames have a knack for losing to teams with below .500 ratings. Buffalo came into the city with an 11 game losing streak under their belt. Calgary, after a brief All-Star break, looked to find their winning form. Sitting in the final Wild Card spot in the...

Calgary Drops Second in a Row Versus Detroit

Flames 2 - Wings 3 The Calgary Flames currently sit 9th in the Conference and show signs of being a good team. Only problem is, good isn't good enough. In every facet of the game the team lacks. 5-6th D pairings are terrible, perhaps the worst in the league. They...

Three in a Row, Back to Back Against LA: Calgary 2 – LA 1

After losing eight the Flame shave now turned the tide around Christmas and registered their third in a row beating an elite team in LA twice. It helps that the lowly Edmonton Oilers are in the mix, but two wins against LA in the past 3 games is no small feat. Calgary...

Flames Lose Seventh in a Row

And just like that the fairy-tale season for the Calgary Flames is done. Sure, there's still hope they can run .500 from here on in and maybe squeak in, but without any form of offensive scoring you can kiss that hope goodbye. No matter how hard I tried, making fun of...

Josh Jooris Hat-Trick: Calgary 5 – Arizona 2

Getting the most bang for your buck, that's what the Calgary Flames are doing this season, second in the league currently for points divided by total salary. It helps when rookies like Josh Jooris are scoring and helping the team to victories. He makes the league...

Shut out for Ramo: Flames 2 – SJ 0

Calgary is a solid 6-0-1 after a loss and continue to beat teams that are bigger and more skilled. With reinforcements on the way, the Flames played their second of three games on the road rolling through California and Arizona on Saturday. With the win tonight...

Flames Fall Again in Anaheim 3-2

How long has it been since the FLames have won in Anaheim? 9 years? Something like that. Calgary needs to find a way to play their third periods in the first two, or at least improve period 1 because they routinely fall behind. No game review, just copy and paste from...
