GDT: Around the League | '22-'23 II

[McDoused]

I know the avs beat us but man it's hard not to be a fan when you see them fighting and roughing up the flames players.

 

[TGOSnipes99]

Who's taking on that contract though?

Some idiot gm will take it with retention. Montreal. Frenchies

 

[Tobias Kahun]

"Backlund is taking on more of a leadership role"

Millen - That was a bit of a puck battle.

Okay there.

 

[McDoused]

Damn vegas looks like they are beating the stars.

 

[bellagiobob]

Flames have the Avs on a B2B, get 5 PP’s and counting, and are still getting pounded. Tre is going to do something stupid this week. He knows that all of his signings this off season have been colossal busts, that the team will be horrible for many, many years to come, and that he is likely gone at he end of the year if they miss the playoffs. Expect all prospects shipped out for a bunch of Lewis/Looch clones.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Markstrom should focus more on stopping the puck than hacking players.

He might be better than an AHL backup if he did that.

 

[TGOSnipes99]

Dallas ties it late

Please win in ot

Don't forget, the Avs had to bus it from Winnipeg to Fargo in order to fly back to Denver too.

 

[BlackDogg]

Vegas two points I guess

Edit oops

 

[Tobias Kahun]

They have Backlund out there with Lucic.

I guess he needs the protection.

 

[Captain Fantastic]

Dumbass Denver fans...both teams can FO

 

[bellagiobob]

Cue the league to turn the ending into a farce.

 

[Tarus]

Goalie goallllll

There goes Mcdavid's hart trophy

I can already hear the rationalizations from eastern conference journalists - "best goaltender in the league and he scored a goal, you know how rare and special that is? Mcdavid would have to score 100 goals to equal it"

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Never even heard of vegas's first shooter.

Dallas win, only 1 point to Vegas.

 

[Captain Fantastic]

Thank you DAL..

 

[Sanchez]

Single point only for Vegas!

 

[Soundwave]

Don't really even care if Vegas wins/loses/whatever. Oilers have shown they have zero interest in winning this division, just "flirting" with a top 3 spot before shitting the bed the very next 1-3 games is good enough.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

With our stretch coming up I really don’t think we are catching Vegas.

 

[KarmaPolice]

Stars get 2 points, but that probably wont effect us so whatever. Vegas only gets 1 point. That could be huge.

 

[Soundwave]

They've had like what? 20 chances this year to catch Vegas. They're not interested in catching Vegas.

Ladies & Gentlemen, your 2025-26 Calgary Flames:

Markstrom - 36 years old - 6M
Weegar - 32 years old - 6.25M
Coleman - 34 years old - 4.9M
Pooperdeau 32 years old - 10.5M
Kadri - 35 years old - 7M

35M for players who are useless today, let alone in three years from now.

I have a feeling Treliving won't be extended after this season, which is too bad

but if we are lucky, ownership will hire Dinosaur Darryl to take over the reigns

To be honest I kind of don’t want to win the division. Just stay in that 2-3 slot it’s the sweet spot.

I don't even think they're that interested in being in the 2-3 spot in the division. They f*** it up every time they get in and then get bumped back down to a Wild Card. Like if Seattle wins either one of their next two games, the Oilers are back out. No killer instinct to want to stay in there.
