Post-game summary, team news, and commentary.
The story before the game was another start for backup netminder Henrik Karlsson. The Flames have committed to have him play more games this season and that seems to be true thus far. The story at the end of the game was another $()#(??#! loss by the Calgary Flames...
They did all the right things, and up until 5 minutes left in the game, it looked like another evening of doing all the right things but coming up short in the win column (and goal scoring). In the first edition of the Battle of Alberta (is this really a battle...
It's been a bad weekend for Calgary. Our city got spanked twice, first the Stampeders lost against the Argonauts, tonight the Flames squandered a 2-0 lead to lose to the Leafs. Toronto isn't known for winning sports teams as of late. Only problem, Calgary's teams are...
The Calgary Flames played their third game of the new NHL season away in Montreal and came out of it with their first win. For their part, the Flames had a bit more jump in their step, and although the effort was far from perfect, they capitalized on their chance when...
St Louis 5 - Calgary 2 If you can't even compete with St Louis you know your team is junk. Blame the Turkey, the early start, whatever, but two games in and the Flames just plain stink in ALL aspects. I bet a buddy before the season the Flames wouldn't finish in the...
Welcome back Flames fans to another year of hopes and dreams. This year`s Calgary Flames show a bit more youth and promise than previous years, but fans are still wary whether the product has changed enough to make any legitimate push for the post-season, let alone a...
The Flames are back from a banff trip designed for team building. I had to post this video up, it's hilarious....
The Calgary Flames closed their 2011 pre-season 9 days before the October 8th season opener. Phoenix visited and provided the stiffest competition yet in pre-season action. For their part, the Flames had most regulars in less the top line. The game itself was sort of...
Not too many surprises, more like disappointments from Flames camp. The management cut 14 players. 12 are off to Abbotsford, two are back to their junior teams. Heading to AHL Heat: Carter Bancks (LW) Chris Breen (D) T.J. Brodie (D) Leland Irving (G) Stefan Meyer (C)...
The 2011-2012 pre-season opened with a home at home split game between the Calgary Flames and Vancouver Canucks. Although Vancouver failed to play anybody with any form of skill, the highlight was Calgary's young prospects. The Jay Feaster era has begun and many new...
The 2011-2012 NHL season is almost upon us. A TON of questions lie unanswered this year as the Flames come into the season slightly improved in a division where the opposition has grown in leaps and bounds. Certainly, the sudden increase in talented prospects is...
Why? Probably a salary dump. Calgary Flames have shed more salary by dumping Daymond Langkow's 4.5 million salary in favour of a much lighter cap hit of 1.9 million. The new management is certainly putting their stamp on the team literally nixing many of the expensive...
Once again, to the delight of Flames fans all 82 Flames regular season games will be broadcast on TV. This will also include three pre-season games. The 82 game schedule will be on the following networks: Sportsnet West (45+2), Sportsnet Flames (15), CBC (12), TSN...
The depth chart behind #1 & #2 defencemen Bouwmeester and Giordano is looking mighty thin. On the LW there's TJ Brodie sitting #6.... Although he has skills is he ready for the big time? After Gio there's Sarich with that veteran presence, Babchuk who's played the...
