..which makes the fact that the NHL’s second-best team, the Calgary Flames, lost in *five* games after a disastrous performance tonight only slightly less painful. I guess I’ll always have the regular season. 🙁
I occasionally do a post with my picks at the start of the NHL playoffs. I forgot to do so this year but it’s probably not worth it as quite a few series aren’t going the way I’d expected – my Calgary Flames are struggling after winning the Western Conference title in the regular season, […]
I saw this book in my library today and had a good chuckle. I mean, the Oilers sucked for the first couple years of their existence, they sucked for the last decade plus and they have as many sub-.500% seasons as ones where they’ve won more than they’ve lost. So, at best, it’s maybe 20 […]
Back in October, I wrote a post about the things I was excited for this season. There was lots to be excited about but I doubt many Flames fans predicted the season the Calgary Flames would end up having. I was optimistic that they’d be in the playoff hunt and hoped they’d be in the […]

Back in October as the NHL season began, I did a post about many of the reasons I was excited for the Flames 2018/2019 season.
