It was a new season for the Flames in game four. Actually, it's just home ice. The Calgary Flames have the home fans and maybe some help from the officials in game four against Detroit. Things started fast and furious. The pace was quick, the crowd was loud. In fact,...

There was eager anticipation for the home crowd as their team would get a chance to do some damage on the visiting Red Wings. Calgary had the best regular season home-ice record with 30 wins. Would tonight prove to be equally rewarding? Right off the bat things were...

Flames Overwhelmed Again - Have No Answer Would there be a change in fortune for a team that vowed and practically promised a better effort in game two after a game one embarrassment? To all those who skipped church to head to the bar and watch the game you were...

NHL Puts on Boring Show Of all the hockey games so far in the playoffs, this was by far the worst. I don't say this because Calgary was pounded into a delinquent submission but because the flow was terrible. Tell me why Mick McGeough keeps reffing games? He's public...

Flames Not Prepared for Playoff Push Things are falling apart. Yes the starting line up wasn't on the ice, but man, Calgary is an embarrassment on ice. Last week people were singing their praises, but that's because they were playing great hockey. For some reason...

Calgary can't seem to prepare themselves for what is now a playoff run. Despite losing to the worst team in the North West division, Calgary still clinched the 8th and final seed because Colorado lost their game against Nashville. The past three games have not been...

Postseason Playoff Hockey Calgary had a chance to secure a playoff berth with a win over a hot Pacific division team that could end up being first in their division. It was nice to see the Flames actually show up for the first minute of the game. Early on this contest...

The AHL announced Knights’ goaltender Curtis McElhinney has been named to the 2006-07 AHL Second All-Star Team. A second year pro, McElhinney has helped the Ak-Sar-Ben Knights to their first Calder Cup Playoff berth. In 52 appearances this year, the native of...

A win tonight against the Avs would not only kick all hopes for an Avalanche post-season out, but clinch a post-season berth for Calgary. There was much anticipation in the air as the Flames returned home after a successful week long jaunt around the NHL. Tonight,...

It's not playoff time but you wouldn't know it by the way these two teams hate each other. Calgary looked to take a sweep in their brief road-trip with another win over the Canucks. It would be a tall order for Calgary but the team has been playing their best hockey...

In the second game in three nights against the same opponent ahead of them in the standings, both away games to boot, the Flames were looking for more against the Wild. Another win would give them 92 points and only 6 points behind the closest team with a game against...

Chicago is one of those teams that Calgary has had some difficulty finding two points against. Despite being locked in the basement of the Western division, the Chicago Blackhawks have Calgary's number this season. For two periods one thought if history would repeat...

Unlikely Hero Gets Flames Two Points It was the second game in three nights for the Flames, and the competition wasn't getting easier. Finishing off Detroit in style on Tuesday, tonight would see the team face-off against Nashville, a squad they just can't seem to...

Most of the team got the message: this is playoff hockey. Calgary wasted little time asserting their dominant forcheck early in the first, the kind of hockey we've come to know and love. Hard hitting play kept the puck in the Detroit zone for most of the first two...

The Flames lost again. 8th place is all they can muster now for sure. Which means a quick 4-0 out for them in the playoffs. Iginla played 25 minutes an managed a huge 2 shots. Shows what kind of game we're playing. That is all.
