So, status quo then?

Unfortunately yes.

I miss McGeough, Gregson, Koharski, Van Hellomand, and Hogarth.

At least your team isn't lined up to play against the NHL's marketing department...

That's a pretty dirty elbow all right - Might get a game or two for that.

I hope the Lumbus goes on a very long post-March 22 win streak and wins the Metro.

Also, not that I condone that elbow from Tkachuk, but at least there's finally some push back from the Flames after all the hacks and whacks that Johnny Gaudreau has taken this year.

You're not so bad I say we start it now, don't you?


Honestly, I really, really want that President's trophy. I know the trophy curse and all that, but it will really be vindication for a team that was in the lottery last year and picked third overall. Whose biggest additions were 5 rookies and a has been. Not to underplay the importance of Bob's health, mind you.

Still, almost looks like that Bald Finnish Fuckwit might know what he's doing.

Whatever happens in the playoffs past that would just be icing on the cake.

If they can just lose 2 more games this season and then maybe 4 of 7 in the first round it's all gravy.

Hey, Curtis Lazar is a point per game player in his short tenure with the Flames

Nah, they should go ahead and reel off 20 straight for the fun of it.

Hey, you've got your own version of Matthew Tkachuk, he's currently down in Utica though.

If the Leafs beat the Bruins tonight in regulation I'd be happy to take a loser point on Wednesday to help the Jackets with their drive for first place in the East.

Hey, start McIlhiney Wednesday, please.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Hey, start McIlhiney Wednesday, please.

They might. Could see Babcock looking at Jersey Thursday as the more winnable game and not wanting to risk it by giving Tobasco a chance to spice things up.

Then again, Babs totally botched his goalie rotation on that disaster of a California trip so it wouldn't shock me to see him to it again.

Hockey Night in Smashville! I'll be there with my Jack & Coke in hand.

Flames come to Smashville Thursday night, that should be a fun game (last one between these two teams was a ring-a-ding dong dandy).
