Also, I hope Raymond knows which net to shoot at tomorrow night.

/Who am I kidding, he'll be too busy falling down, amirite?

I wonder how many of these jerseys will be sold:

 

[Cobiemonster]

This should be a good one - some new faces in Vancouver and with a new starting goalie in Calgary, should make for a good game

 

[esls79]

That's some kind of line up there, dash.

/no three point game, please

 

[KennyBanyeah]

at Engelland in the top 4.

Both Smid and Wideman are better players.

The top 6 D, as a group, looks pretty decent though.

That forward group will have trouble scoring.

So I shouldn't expect 410 goals this season from the Flames, then?

Oh you can expect it... counting from now to about March 2016.

If they score at their pace from last year, they actually wouldn't even make that!

Gaudreau-Colborne-Byron;

Hartley called them "the Tower and the Timbits"
being American, Gaudreau didn't get it at first.

Think of how much better they will be when we send Tim Erixon back.
