Comedy SILVER out of Calgary

Heck, I'd rather have Clark Gillies.

Those were the days. I'm thankful that I saw my team win 4 cups because the chances of them winning 1 during the rest of my life are probably zero.

Agreed.

Elliotte Friedman ‏@FriedgeHNIC 44m
Not good @MT KristenOdlandCH: Sounds like Mikael Backlund’s injury (ab strain) worse than originally thought. “I’m worried" said Bob Hartley

Maybe Sam Bennett will get his 9 games in Backlund's spot prior to getting sent back to Kingston?

Realtor Cody Battershill

One-man oil sands advocate, tired of smears against Alberta, takes on celebrity activists in PR war | National Post

 

[dash]

Cody is an equal opportunity shill jstew - from the article:

Much of Mr. Battershill’s activism seems to stem from a deeply rooted patriotism. Those stories of Calgarians being insulted while travelling abroad fill him with defensiveness and dread: “This has become an issue of pride for me, for Calgary, Alberta, and Canada.”

Indeed, along with the oil sands t-shirts, his online store also sells t-shirts expressing affection for each of the provinces, mugs extolling B.C. liquid natural gas, as well as bandanas and baseball caps.

Calgary Flames @NHLFlames
Acolaste (D) is on waivers with the intent of assignment to the @AHLFlames.

Calgary Flames @NHLFlames
#Flames Roster Update: Arnold (F), Reinhart (F), Knight (F), and Kulak (D) have been assigned to the @AHLFlames.

In other words, Gaudreau, Bennett, and Baertschi are still with the big club. I'm still expecting Bennett to be returned to Kingston, but I think he's got a good chance of getting his 9 NHL games.

Hey dash what's with the Flames having the lowest payroll in the league at the moment? I thought the Isles would own that spot for eternity.

Bargain basement belligerence, my friend. It's all part of the master plan.

So which of the 2 young stud forwards would you take 1st overall if given the chance? I realize Edmonton & Buffalo will definitely have a say as to who picks 1st overall, but I'm curious as to which player you think is better. I haven't seen either of them play.
