Meaningless End of Season Game: Calgary Finishes in 5th

McElhinney First Career Win: Calgary 4 - Edmonton 1 Tonight's game, meaningless. Calgary's talent on the gamesheet, second to none. Their performance? Absolutely horrendous in the second half of the season. Calgary found out they would play Chicago and wind up 5th in...

Pathetic. Organization and Players Just Don’t Care

One of the worst collapses in professional sports this year occurred in the month of March and April. The team in question was our own Calgary Flames. The losers on ice had a comfortable lead in in February for first place in the NW division. They squandered that in...

Jarome Iginla Killing this Team: Flames 1 – Oilers 5

What do you get with two games to go, home ice advantage, a pathetic top line, massive 15. That's the number of Flames players dressed for tonight's game. The rash of injuries at the worst time of year put Calgary in a tight spot. Without cap space to bring up players...

Busted PP: Flames 1 – Canucks 4

The Canucks have one chant, it's 'Calgary sucks'. The poor boobs in vancouver can't think of anything smarter. Alas, they can chant whatever they want because it's true, Calgary does suck, but tonight it was the PP, and not necessarily the entire game. And Dion...

One More Win to Go: Flames 4 – Kings 1

Destiny, or rather first place in the NW division, is now completely in the Flames' hands. They can win the next two games and clinch first. Or they can crap the bed and flounder to 5th or even 6th place virtually assuring a first round exit. A number of factors were...

Idiot Referees FAIL: Minnesota 4 – Calgary 0

Pathetic Showing from Referees Marginally Worse Than Flames Effort Minnesota going into the game were four points out of playoff spot, not exactly the NW division powerhouse they've been in the past. Perfect set up for Calgary to get rolled (that's bad). Now it's...

Flames Win: Calgary 2 – Dallas 1

Calgary pushed ahead in the standings back to the number one spot and essentially hold their own fate on where they finish this season in the standings after Vancouver's shoot-out loss to Anaheim. Coming into Dallas apprehensive fans were wondering what Flames team...

Vancouver Takes Top Place

Vancouver is now the leader in the NW division. Calgary is one day away from 5th place. The slow train wreck is unfolding before us. All is not lost, but the team is literally falling apart and choking at the worst time of the season. It's not time to give up hope...

Not Elite: Calgary 1 – San Jose 2

With Vancouver now in line to take over the top of the division will continue their tank to the bottom. Actually, when you think of it, how have years changed expectations. Before it was barely squeaking into the playoffs, now it's pissed off fans going on about the...
