GDT: "Screw it. Let's win again." (Game #4, Oct. 15) Blackhawks @ Flames - 7:00pm MT, 4am EEST

[flames23]

Not sure we can beat this club. Prove me wrong, but this is the quintessential let down spot after 3 excellent wins vs a team that has beaten us 5 of the last 6.

Not just any team either. A bottom-feeder aka a president's trophy type calibre club when they pop by the 'dome.

Ofc that wasn't against this disrespected and resilient group.

Bring it on!

 

[Straight Fire]

A few more wins and it’s manically check the standings time

I'm already there

 

[Straight Fire]

Imagine we finally get our new PBP guy tonight?
Is he with Hrudey or Millen? Cassie seems like she's on all the US Networks now.

I haven't even seen her on those for awhile either but I don't doubt it. I'd have to look it up who she's being employed by down there.

Hoping for another win, but nothing would surprise me. But this is one we could, you know, win. Theoretically.

Go Flams!

Thought our game stared at 10pm EST, I was watching the Columbus game. Amazing tribute and Monahan scored the 2nd goal for them. Pretty awesome.

Anyways, go Flames, come out of the gates fast. Give Wolf some run support.

 

[Rubi]

Hrudy is back.

 

[Straight Fire]

Calgary-style George Canyon - yahoo! Love it. Love the Mounties in their traditional unis too. Hope some Chicagoans are enjoying our flare.

Hrudy is back.

He's got that fairly glazed over look going on, ready for the new guy lol

Rick Ball calling the Hawks isn’t right

 

[Straight Fire]

Rick Ball calling the Hawks isn’t right

He is?!

Wolf says not today other Connor

 

[Boomstick]

I like that we gained our legs fast after Weegar's turnover.
Kirkland close call, would have been amazing. Wolf nice stop on Bedard.

 

[Straight Fire]

Some delicate passes just inside their blueline and somehow they all worked

 

[Rubi]

Justin Kirkland.. Why has this guy been basically a career AHL'er?
I like what I'm seeing so far these past two games.

 

[Straight Fire]

Jon Abbot reminds me quite a bit of young/newish CFL play-caller Marshall Ferguson. I really like the new blood so far.

Playing on bad teams and a horrific car accident. He was in the NHL pre accident.

 

[Lunatik]

He is?!

Wolf says not today other Connor

Yeah, Ball left us for the Hawks job

 

[Backlund]

Why did he pass that?

 

[Straight Fire]

Yeah, Ball left us for the Hawks job

That's good for him, thought he was retiring

 

[JPeeper]

Zary actually pulls off the dangles that Baertschi and Bennett tried when they were here.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Yeah, Ball left us for the Hawks job

He was offered a ton of money, lets be honest here. Was a huge career move. Sportsnet lost a good one.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Zary keeps climbing the NHL Connor leaderboard

the hands on the kid are dangerous consistently

 

[Zirakzigil]

Zary actually pulls off the dangles that Baertschi and Bennett tried when they were here.

Yes. And I would pay Bennet a lot of money to come back as 2nd line center.

 

[Straight Fire]

Did Hrudy just call Pang "Millen?"

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Wolf is so fuggin good. Gonna win a couple Vezinas at some point.

 

[Straight Fire]

Zary keeps climbing the NHL Connor leaderboard

the hands on the kid are dangerous consistently

He's strong too, unlike the other two

I like our kid

 

[Lunatik]

Playing on bad teams and a horrific car accident. He was in the NHL pre accident.

Also a late bloomer. He wasn't even a half a point per game AHLer until he joined Stockton when he was 23. He didn't start showing potential for a call-up until he was 25 when he put up 25 goals and 48 points for the Heat... then the next season at 26 he got a shot with the Duckies and ended up in the car accident. He got a couple more games for the Coyotes last year and then of course this year he's back in the Flames organization and got his first NHL goal/point.

 

[JPeeper]

Corny with his first of the season, very nice.
