Remember when Koskinen was a true #1 but there was no chance Rittich would sustain his play. I sure do

I said this after he let in a goal on the first shot. My bad for the anti jinx

There was some Oilers fans saying he was the next Kipper on the main boards.. even calling him Koskisoff.
Yikes, based on a stretch of ten games where the team gelled under a new coach? That's cringe inducing. Not to mention insulting to the memory of Kiprusoff.

I seem to remember they did the same thing with Tkachev being the next Gaudreau. I am sensing a pattern.
"Gaudreau is such a runt, I would love nothing more than to see Lucic drive that talentless diver's face into the boards!!!!!"
five minutes later
"Man, Tkachev is so good. Might be as talented as Gaudreau, probably even better! Future MVP and Cup hoister for the 2020 Oilers!!!!!!!!"

Great game results last night. I cheered for the underdog Ave to win and they did... And the Leafs lost.
Also have to admit that I was cheering for the Oilers too. Would love to have the Flames play them in the first round of the ploffs this year.

I know I know. It just that I'd much rather the Oilers finish just barely out of the playoffs or 16th than somewhere in the bottom 5. The've had more than their fair share of top 5 draft picks.
No. Bad Rubi.
Eh, they can't do anything with them anyways besides trade them for pennies. No concern of mine.

Now Laurent Brossoit looks like a legit #1. At this point I’d sign Talbot next year I think the problem is Edmonton D

Ha ha. This article, written Oct 30 2018, didn't age particularly well.

16. Calgary Flames: Johnny Gaudreau-Sean Monahan-Elias Lindholm
Lindholm is expected to add some defensive prowess to the Flames' top line, which features one of the most dynamic duos in the NHL. They've generated eight goals in 11 games together, which is good. They've given up nine and are in the negative side of possession, which is bad. Still, a promising group for coach Bill Peters -- although one wonders, if they struggle, how much pressure will be on him to add the expensive James Neal to Monahan and Gaudreau.

Can add that to the article in November that said we lost the trade with Carolina
Wasnt it something like "Flames surely lost the trade, even though it looks good for the Flames now"
Though I might agree that Flames lost the Hamilton trade, but who cares as the Flames absolutely robbed the Canes in the Lindholm trade

I disagree with you on Hamilton. Hanifin has out performed Hamilton in every way this year, except SOG. The Flames won the Hamilton-Hanifin trade.
