Sometimes a video can say more than a blogger ever can. In this case, 2 videos can pretty much tell the entire story of last night’s game. We got spanked. The first piece of evidence: Jordan Eberle’s first NHL goal… The second piece of evidence: MacIntyre vs Ivanans. TKO. I hope that’s the last time [...]

Note: This was supposed to be published last night, but my computer and internet voted 2-1 against me on that plan. Three of the newest Flames had points tonight as Calgary rolled through Florida and won the first game of their 3-game road trip. Ales Kotalik scored his first Flames goal on the powerplay with [...]
A day after the blockbuster trade that sent Dion Phaneuf and Freddie Sjostrom to the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Calgary Flames didn’t seem to have any extra motivation to play.
