Post-game summary, team news, and commentary.
Calgary Blows Another Lead It's becoming a regular catch phrase in the Flames lingo, 'they were outworked', only this time it was in their own building. Calgary started the game with a nice 2-0 lead but collapsed late (with a minute left) in all three periods. For...
Flames Bounce Back Winning All the Battles After a 7-4 drubbing two days ago in Detroit (should have been 13-0), the Calgary Flames were looking for revenge, or at least to right the ship. The game was a later start to accommodate an Edmonton game on TV (they lost...
Flames Play Worst Game of the Season The score did not depict how this game truly transpired. It should really really read 6-1, and realistically read 12-1 had it not been for some goaltending. Calgary played by far their worst game of the season. Over 50 shots were...
http://tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=195785&hubname=nhl Calgary acquired Brad Stuart (former Hitman), a conditional draft pick, and Wayne Primeau from the Boston Bruins for Andrew Ference and Chuck Kobasew. The conditional draft pick will likely be dependent on...
The Flames entered one of the toughest buildings in the league to face the Sabres who are the second best team in the NHL. There were times when you were holding onto your seat and Buffalo danced around Calgary defencemen, but the Flames also had their odd-man...
Road Trip Begins With Another Bad Loss Calgary is notorious on the road, notoriously bad. Another slow start at this game almost put them out of the running early. A lengthly 5v3 was the biggest event, for Columbus, in period one. But guess who, Mr. Noodles Mclennan...
Calgary Flames Honour Mike Vernon - Loose Boring Game The ceremony was a tearjerker, lasted almost 60 minutes, had chants of Vernon!, and ended with a 'YAAAAAAAA BABY!'. We salute you Mikey! And now back to our regular scheduled program. Period one,...
Flames take first place in NW division with quality win. It was a hard fought battle from puck drop, but the Flames dominated the latest installment of the top NW division teams. Vancouver had moments in the third where they looked dangerous, but for the most part,...
It was the first game for Craig Conroy and the new Calgary Flames. I thought I told Kerry Fraser never to come back after Game 6 of 2004. You think I forget Kerry? No way, if I was at the game I would have booed you every time you touched the puck. Of course Kerry and...
http://tsn.ca/nhl/news_story/?ID=194096&hubname= Craig Conroy is back, obviously to bolster our centermen. This is an interesting move as Langkow has been producing well on the 1st line, Lombardi is flash on the second, and Yelle on the third. What does this mean for...
You wouldn't have thought the Flames were about to pull off a romp. Considering they were badly outplayed in the first period, not registering a shot until the 10 minute mark. Yes, the road woes continue since it's impossible for this team to come out of the gate...
Is it just me, or are the Ducks the new Canucks? Honestly, Selanne is a disgrace to the league. If you watched this game (if you were at it) you'd see him after every whistle complain nonstop to the officials. EVERY WHISTLE! Search Selanne on this blog and you'll find...
This game can be summed up in two statements: Horrible Flames play for 3 periods. The worst blown call by an official in the third (not that it mattered) You know things are going bad when 5v5 the Flames are outworked and pushed around. If they can't handle a team...
You know it had to happen at some point. Calgary couldn't go on forever winning without Jarome, and tonight was the night they needed him most. Nashville is one of the top teams in the West and provided a good test for the Flames. Using one of their games in hand...
Yet another installment of the battle of Alberta tonight at the Dome. Gone are the bench brawls and fights, replaced by speed and a different kind of action. Let me give you a quick rundown of how to the first period went....
