Comedy SILVER out of Calgary

[DaBoltsNIsles]

You can have Bob McElligot (Jackets radio guy). He's a Lange clone.

"He stuck it behind Lundquist like wet bologna on a wall"

and

"FLAPJACKS ON A FERRIS WHEEL"

Did Dustin Penner go to the local FAIR?

Sounds like we got a baby Dragon for a GM:

Bob McKenzie ‏@TSNBobMcKenzie 1m
PHX asst GM Brad Treliving has been hired as GM of the Calgary Flames.

Time to get cookin' (finger)

“@RealKyper: Brad Treliving was the only guy interviewed for the GM job before excepting #Flames offer.”

Nick Kypreos is an acceptional NHL insider.

Pierre LeBrun ‏@Real_ESPNLeBrun 11m Really like Brad Treliving hire in Calgary. Inspired choice. Modern thinker. Good fit in my mind.

Just happy that it wasn't Nonis or somebody else from the Leafs organization that had a prior relationship with Burke. Let's see what happens.

Jim Benning for Canucks GM?

 

[Cobiemonster]

Good hire by the Flames

Jim Benning for Canucks GM?

is that out there now or just still the rumour?

 

[mattola]

might want to get a better picture of your new GM

I look at this and I hear


I CAME FROM PHOENIX, IVE SEEN SHIT

Still just a rumour (based on Trev talking to Cam Neely last week). George McPhee is looking for his next gig.

lol - Maybe that pic was taken after he took a look at the current Flames roster?

Nick Kypreos is an acceptional NHL insider.

If you look close enough you can see 100% of his frontal lobe pouring out onto the ice.

Main bullet points from the presser:

- Hartley to remain as coach
- No restrictions on Treliving's draft participation (kind of surprising, but good for Calgary)
- Stressed getting it right the first time (Phoenix was on a tight budget, couldn't afford mistakes)
- Taking a long term view - The draft is paramount. Developing players is paramount. Trades are paramount.

/Maybe the Flames should relocate to Paramount Studios.
//Must have been serious, Burke's tie was actually tied at the presser

Jim has those Brent Sutter ears, though. That's a negative (lol)

Darren Haynes ‏@DarrenWHaynes

Avs loss is good news for #Flames 2nd round pick they got for Berra. At worst, pick will be 56th. Rises to 54th if Bos/Ana lose this round.

Thanks Minnesota and Go Kings Go!

Baby steps Matty baby steps.

/Still can't believe Burke was able to get a 2nd round pick for Berra, that was quite a coup.
