The Phoenix Coyotes not only have no names on their team, but they have nobody in their arena. Half filled with Flames fans, and half filled with ticket giveaways, the rink with what looked like 9000 strong watched their team work just that bit harder than the...

I always knew that this year's much cheaper version of Jokinen would be a welcomed addition to the Flames lineup. He currently leads the team in points and is also leading the playoff push playing some of his best hockey in the past 5 seasons. Tonight he was dominant...

The largely ineffective Nik Hagman had the last laugh in the shoot-out, in the 8th round no less, to sink the Flames in a game where they NEEDED two points. I suppose every game is a MUST-WIN, but it becomes more apparent when you're playing bottom basement dwelling...

Just like the Sharks, just like Chicago on Friday, Calgary can't beat playoff calibre teams. They come up short, not by much, but how much you lose is irrelevant. Biggest problems are defensive breakdowns and issues at center-ice. Solution? None at this time of the...

Calgary 0 - San Jose 1 Quite simply lack of offence killed the Flames tonight. Their lack of offence is evident as well. The largest problem is down the middle. As we get healthy on the wings there's a clear chasm between Jokinen and then everyone else below him. We...

Another Hockey Night in Canada evening game which unfortunately meant another evening listening to bland Mark Kelly and 'I only reiterate and state the obvious' Kevin Weeks. Once you got past the eye rolling it was a pretty good game for Flames fans. Calgary continues...

The Flames pulled into South California for a second game in three days. The score was the same as two nights ago vs. the Sharks, but this time Calgary was on the winning end. Both game required shootouts to determine a winner, and somehow, Calgary skated with teams...

Scoring is what lacks on this team. Without Alex Tanguay, and Curtis Glencross missing in action mid-way thru the second period, Calgary was short on goals. Nonetheless, this was as close as we've seen the Flames play all year to playoff style hockey. Lead by their...

Flames 1 - Kings 4 From top to bottom the Calgary Flames were thouroughly manhandled and embarassed. Sure, this wasn't a 9-0 blowout, but if you needed any more confirmation that the Flames will not--no--CANNOT make the playoffs, this game was a testament. This team...

Calgary 1 - Anaheim 0 (OT) YOu had the sense this game was going to go down much like previous games against sub .500 teams. Calgary just can't beat basement dweller hockey clubs (of which they are one). Lately the problem has been sustained offence, only 18 shots in...

Calgary came out and scored a quick 4 goals chasing starting goalie Martin Brodeur. IN true Flames fashion reminiscent of the Ottawa game last week, they had extended periods where they turned off the pressure to give NJ life. Thankfully the top line was just that,...
