If it were possible to have a zero-zero tie as the final score in an NHL game in 2010 (after OT and the shootout!), this would have been it. The Calgary Flames played in Toronto for the first time since the big Phaneuf and Aulie for Stajan, White, Hagman and Mayers trade and it was [...]
David Moss scored two goals and Henrik Karlsson stopped 33 shots to give the Calgary Flames a much-needed win in Ottawa tonight. The Flames got out to an early lead and held off the Senators late push to win the game 3-2. After a scoreless first period, Moss opened the scoring 5 minutes into the [...]
After all the media circus surrounding this game, I suppose it is appropriate that both of the captains were relatively silent and one of the teams broke down completely and allowed 3 goals in 57 seconds. While the Flames and Leafs have both proven that they are capable of letting in 3 goals so fast, [...]
The Calgary Flames actually won tonight, but I can’t say that I’m impressed. Sure, they jumped out to a 2-0 lead and and hung on long enough to force overtime. Sure Jarome Iginla nailed the overtime winner, but that’s not enough to make me a believer. Unfortunately just getting a win isn’t enough anymore. After [...]
The Calgary Flames won their second consecutive game while beating the Tampa Bay Lightning 4-2 in the Saddledome tonight. Rene Bourque lead all skaters with 3 points, including the game-winning goal. It was Calgary’s first home ice win against the Lightning since 2003. The Flames opened the scoring 7:21 into the first period when Cory [...]
WTF?! The Calgary Flames will never cease to amaze me. After struggling to string 40 minutes of good hockey together throughout the whole month of November, they come out flying tonight and beat the Stanley Cup Champion Chicago Blackhawks 7-2. The Flames played with a level of skill that seemed to be lacking in their [...]
The Calgary Flames turned down the suck for long enough to beat an injury-depleted Colorado Avalanche last night. I suppose I should be happy that they got the 2 points instead of giving them to a divisional rival, but it will take a lot more than this to make me happy again. Since their 7-2 [...]
Brendan Morrison scored 2 goals, one on the powerplay and one short-handed, for the Flames tonight as they celebrated goaltender Miikka Kiprusoff’s 34th birthday with a win over the Edmonton Oilers.

Rene Bourque scored his first goal of the season at just the right time. The time was 2:50 into overtime and the goal gave the Flames a 1-0 win in Nashville. Rene Bourque, who has been out since the start of the season with a head injury, had a great return to the lineup and [...]
So this may sound like deja vu, but here it is. “The top line for the Calgary Flames silenced their critics with an offensive outburst tonight at the Saddledome.
