Calgary Flames new Jerseys

Unofficially the Calgary Flames have introduced new jersey’s for 2008. I think the jersey’s should really help to eliminate the road woes of the Flames from 2007.

Remember when Calgary was Red Hot?

The Calgary Flames may have been extinguished for this year, but that’s no reason not to celebrate the memory of when they were red hot. I mean “Red Hot.” Yeah, back in the heyday of the 1980s when Brett Hull was on the squad, the Flames were totally “Red Hot,” so much so they felt […]

Flame Outs and Dead Bolts

And so it goes that the NHL post-season came to an end for two more cities yesterday, ironically two cities that faced one another in the Stanley Cup finals just a few years ago.
Down in Tampa the Lightning lost their series in six games after getting beat 3-2 by New Jersey. Martin Brodeur came up […]

Oh Canada, So Close To A Sweep

The Great White North came within an overtime goal of putting two teams into the second round and sweeping the action last night, but the stupid Stars had to go and ruin it when Brenden Morrow scored on Roberto Luongo to put Dallas over Vancouver 1-0 in the extra period. Oh well, the Canucks are […]

Flames…Off

The Stanley Cup playoffs, the toughest championship in the world of sports. Only the best of the best earn the right to compete and to win you have to endure a grueling two-month tournament. Normally this is the highpoint of the hockey season. Except this year someone is stinking up the joint.
That’s right Calgary, I’m […]

NHL playoffs - day 2

Some great games last night as the Wings, Sabres, Rangers (yes, Rangers) and Devils all won.
The games that I was able to catch had one trend. The winning team (except the Rangers) were owned like the girl in this basketball dunk video

Anyway, to recap

Calgary Flames looked terrible
Buffalo made the Islanders look like, well, Islanders.
Devils […]

Wednesday - looks like

Continuing in the Wednesday looks like articles… Today’s article is about Kristian Huselius.
Huselius is number 20 on the Calgary Flames and number one with some fans. He tied for 3rd in points on the team this year and many people consider him the most exciting player on the Flames. […]

Xmas in April

TSN will be covering up to 28 games in the first round of the playoffs!   While the CBC will […]

Snarks On Ice: Your NHL Playoff Preview

Oh I know, you hardly took notice that the NHL regular season came to an end yesterday, but there’s no need for you to be ashamed or anything. With NBC’s spotty coverage and Versus being the cable equivalent of a low-powered community-college UHF station, it’s easy to overlook hockey sometimes, even though it is […]

NBC doing a fine job ignoring hockey

The final weekend of the NHL regular season is upon us, and what a doozie it will be. There are a couple division races still to be decided and two playoff spots are up for grabs.
Montreal and Toronto battle it out tonight for the eighth seed in the East with a one-point margin separating the […]
