Post-game summary, team news, and commentary.
Both Brad Ference (D) and Eric Godard (LW) have been placed on waivers. This means neither made the team, and in order to play in the minors, they need to be waived. This is due to their NHL experience since under the new CBA if you have X amount of games you need to...
Andrei T didn't make it, yet. Darryl Sutter announced the assignment of five players to the Omaha Ak-Sar-Ben Knights of the AHL. Goaltender (1): Brent Krahn Defencemen (1): Richie Regehr Forwards (3): Andrei Taratukhin, Dustin Boyd, Brandon Prust Who does that leave...
The Calgary Flames signed defenseman Andrew Ference to a three-year contract extension. He'll be a Flames, baring trade, until 2010. Ference had career highs in assists (27), points (31) and games (82) last season and added four assists in seven postseason games. He...
Flamesforum is here for all Calgary sports and I thought we'd post some Stampeders info. The Stamps lost a boring game against Toronto that saw Grandpa Simpson--I mean Allen--make smart decisions to burn up the clock. I would like to make a few comments about the game...
I admit, I missed this game, but from what I hear and see on the official scoresheet is more vets playing and another lose. Kiprusoff is still refining his game, as are many of the vets. The defence is looking for continuity as they let 39 shots on Miikka. Hope for a...
The Sharks came into town and helped produce a largely entertaining game, that is until the third. The veterans of the Flames are really stepping up, skilles players are scoring, Amonte is still impressing, Iggy scored on a breakaway, Phanuef (not a vet) is...
If you recall at the end of last season the Flames announced they were going to open a new sports lounge right in the heart of downtown Calgary. Well I walked by the new location and decided to snap a few photos. (The Gallery as the rest.) You can see this will...
The Flames took game two of the home and home versus the Oilers in pre-season action at Rexall Place. Alex Tanguay showed flashes of what is soon to be a 5 million dollar campaign dominating the top line with Amonte. Tanguay had a power-play goal and an assist to lead...
Hello FlamesForum Fans! Just a note to inform you all of the new and revamped gallery system. The purpose of the gallery is to have the number one collection of Flames fan pictures--of anything Flames. Of course keep the content PG rated, however, enjoy the photos...

There was good, bad, and meh, it's regular season. The Flames lost their first pre-season game versus the Oilers at Home. The 4-3 contest was decided in overtime when 3 giveaways one after another lead to an Oiler breakaway for the short-handed game winner. The big...
Although the Calgary Sun said it happened two days ago, the Flames announced that Flames’ first round pick in the 2006 NHL Entry Draft, Leland Irving, has been assigned to his junior club, the Everett Silvertips. Irving had a steady camp and said he learned plenty...
Who woulda thunk it? Jeff Friesen is a fighter, Daymond Langkow likes to drop the gloves with dudes twice his height, and Tony Amonte and score? Ok I'm kidding, kind of, but Friesen had two fights, Langkow held his own, and Amonte had the tying goal in a Flames...
The Calgary Flames after Sunday's game sent 7 more juniors home. The list included: Kevin lelande (Belleville) Gord Baldwin (Medicine Hat) Myles Rumsey (Swift Current) Matt Pelech (Belleville) Dan Ryder (Peterborough) Brett Sutter (Red Deer) JD Watt (Vancouver). Next...
Chuck Kobasew wore the C during the lock out for the Lowell Monsters, tonight, he wore the 'A' for the big club. Perhaps a mini motivator from the Flames brass silently suggesting, "how about another 20+ goal season?" Kobasew didn't dissapoint. The line of Kobasew,...
