GDT: Around the League 2023-2024 "Off Season??!! What off season??!!"

[mkatcherin00]

I would have to seal everything and never go outside if I lived in Australia lol. Yikes. I bet that happens in places in Florida too. I could never ever live in those types of areas.

Yeah, f*** that shit haha yikes. I just got bored and found this (3 weeks ago)

Woman Finds Deadly 6-Foot Snake While Changing Her Sheets: 'Check the Bed Carefully Tonight!'

A woman in Queensland, Australia, made a very unhappy discovery when she went to change her sheets this week: there was a 6-foot eastern brown snake in her bed

Going to sleep at night in the cold ass weather living in Edmonton? Sounds like a good sleep under thick covers and blankets.
Changing your bed sheets in Australia? Now make sure you check or one of Australia's top 5 venomous snakes could be chilling in your bedroom.

Don't forget to check any pair of footwear you plan to wear when leaving your house for venomous spiders or scorpions as well!

I’ve been down under a couple times. Was at a friends house in Melbourne and was warned to watch for spiders on the shower head before turning on the shower. Sure enough the next morning I went to take a shower and glanced up to look at the shower head and there was a giant furry thing the size of my f***ing hand on it.

Needless to say I didn’t shower for 3 weeks until my airport hotel stay the night before I flew home.

 

[FlameChampion]

Still don't know why we have 8 pre season games. Canucks have like 5 or 6

In all seriousness, it doesnt make a lot of sense when the 95% of the line up has already been determined.

Flames Notebook: Coronato's hat trick caps confidence-boosting win vs. Canucks

Right on cue as predicted.

 

[TopShelfGloveSide]

I just remember hearing a story about a guy in Australia sleeping in his bed. In the middle of the night he heard / felt a thump on his bed. He jumped out of bed and turned on the light. That thump he heard and felt was a gigantic spider falling from the ceiling onto his bed.

Hell no.

"He has one of the best shots I've ever seen" - Huberdeau

Should fit in well with the "best passer in Flames history."

There must be something in the air in Calgary that makes them barf out over the top superlatives. They've always been the best at one thing or another going on a decade now, except without any actual results at any point.

Its Bizarre eh? But so many people want to go live or visit Australia. Its gods hell continent imo. The abyss place they used to ship convicts off to for lifelong penitence and punishment. I can gather why. Large amounts of populated cities and area are also basically at sea level too meaning any large wave can cause some flooding and any rise in sea level causes flooding. Any rain causes flooding. Taking a big piss could cause some flooding..

 

[Paralyzer]

Can’t wait to read the Eric Francis column tomorrow prognosticating a Cup after this game.

Too bad I can't read it since Eric Francis banned me.

Flames were practically icing their NHL lineup in game 1 of preseason. Vancouver was icing a tryout lineup with a few NHL bottom six players. Plan the parade for Calgary.

 

[Gordy Elbows]

Flames announcers seem happy.
Hats on the ice.
Chants of ‘we want 10’.
I’m certain this will be the Flames year!

Flames announced that the replay of this game will be available in all IMAX theatres around Calgary. Family packages available.

Complete with one of the worst tandem goaltending performances statistically that I've ever seen by two guys that have never been heard of and may never be again.

Markstrom last year said they’re were a better team than the previous year..only to fall flat on their face when the games mattered
I guess their “top defense corps” got exposed for what they really were
Mediocre as usual

It's that time of the year where shitty teams (Flames) pump themselves up with figurative reasons everything will be better now before reality sets in on October 10.

"Markstrom looks so much happier this year! GREAT body language"

"Everyone is having fun all of a sudden!"

"Coronato has one of the best shots in the league!"

"New paint in the dressing room AND new slogans on the walls!"

"Huberdeau sure looks like he's having fun!"

All complete bullshit, but comical to read.

How big and bright is his Aura though?

Hahaha I forgot about that narrative from last year's pre-season.

Also reminds me when Lombardious had to order a new pair of shorts because Huberdeau made a relatively routine backhand pass through the neutral zone in one of their pre-season games.

 

[Mav3rick07]

The takes from Flames fans right now is hilarious. "Huberdeau is back". "Coronato is the real deal."

1 preseason game against a weak team icing their weakest lineup. Wow.

Reminds me of the H O P E era of the Oilers

Delusion is a hell of a drug

ahhh Peter Loubardias...the same goof who said the Flames were the "deepest team in Flames history" after 6 games last year....Flames went on to lose 7 in a row after he made that statement

Flames actually hired him as a scout this year.

Two way beast unicorn Auston Matthew's is starting to play on the penalty kill. Watch for countless articles tomorrow on it

I'd effectively cancel my cable if the Oilers did this
(although I'd miss Crave)

 

[mkatcherin00]

Man Chycrun is such a STUD. If he stays healthy....Very good player

Toronto is going to hate Klingberg. He looked brutal
