Post-game summary, team news, and commentary.
Calgary is currently playing within a very favorable schedule rarely seen in a season with games every four days. That means lots of rest and chances to get the game plan together. For the most part the Flames did dominate 5v5 play, but it was the one on one battles...
Not even ten games into the regular season the Calgary Flames lined up against their provincial rivals for the third time, only this time on home ice. Both teams came into the game with exact same record, 6-2-1, Edmonton's two losses courtesy of the Flames. One team...
Ban Kerry Fraser From Calgary :P It's game's like these that you think the NHL is fixed like other sports (NBA). A perfectly normal game (if you're a Flames fan) went awry thanks to disastrous and weeeeaaak penalty calls. Couple that with the first period absence of...
McGrattan with Gordie Howe Hat Trick The Flames came into Saturday night's tilt looking to stop the bleeding from a three game losing streak. The Canucks on the other hand sought to extend their winning streak to three. Calgary remembers the opening game when the...
One day after a franchise debacle where the Flames dropped a 5-0 lead to loose 6-5 against the Blackhawks, Calgary pulled into Columbus looking for answers. Would they emerge from their monster fail? Or would they continue their downwards spiral landing in the dump of...
Didn't watch the game, but this is what we know. Flames scored 5 goals in four minutes in the first and then took the pedal off the gas to loose by one in overtime. Six unanswered goals, a huge discrepancy in shots against yet again, big name players unwilling to play...
Wanted: One First Line For the first time in franchise history Calgary looked to go 5-0 at the start of the season. Coming off a win yesterday against Edmonton, it was the first back to back game of the season and the first look at McElhinney. Let's just say nothings...
Battle of Alberta part 2 Ends in Dramatic Fashion You know you're a pathetic city when no free agents want to come to your lame hockey town. You know your fans are of the stupid variety when they try to heckle the goalie with 'Kiprusoff' after he stones your team. You...
For the first time in 15 years the Calgary Flames sought to win their first three games of the season in a row. The second home game of the season also marked the first time Mike Cammalleri returned to the Calgary after moving to Montreal. The Flames drew first blood...
The first installment of the Battle of Alberta came and went with both teams collecting lucky goals. The Flames capitalized on theirs with 45 seconds left you expected the late comeback from the Oilers to trickle into overtime. Apparently Khabibulin had different...
Let's start off by saying the new jersey's are hot, almost literally. The limited edition alternate red jersey's look like the old school 80's away jersey, commemorate the 30th anniversary of the franchise. Other third jerseys (this isn't officially a 'third jersey')...
2009-2010 NHL season predictions are rolling out so I thought I'd jump on the bandwagon. Now, admittedly I'm not a huge hockey fan, as in I don't stay up and watch all the games on NHL Center Ice. As such, I rarely see games from the East Coast, mostly on purpose....
But particularly by the New York Islanders who cry foul on every level. The team is miffed that he hit Okposo; they also don't like the fact he never dropped the gloves versus a career minor leaguer. Let's put the record straight. Phaneuf DID drop the gloves but the...
The Calgary Flames pre-season opened for the 2009-2010 season at home against the provincial rivals. Although the game means little, and it's only pre-season, it's still our first post-game of the year, and an indicator that the regular season is only a couple of...
The Calgary Flames have put the rumors to rest by unveiling their third jersey today to commemorate their 30th year as a franchise. The Jersey looks similar to the old Flames away jerseys from the late 80's. There won't be much of a difference so folks who still have...
