Flames are having an amazing season and are going for it as they flesh out their line-up heading towards the playoffs… Calle Jarnkrok, acquired by CGY, is a versatile middle-six defensive forward who can chip in goals as well at 5v5. Was playing up in Seattle's lineup but will be best suited to a 3rd […]
Diagnosed with ALS in June 2019 and given six months to live, Calgary Flames Assistant GM, Chris Snow, is still alive three years later. He has even been able to keep working (kudos to the Flames for this!) and turn his bad situation into an opportunity to raise hundreds of thousands for ALS research. His […]

Sometimes I forget how popular the online photo sharing site, Flickr used to be in the day (it was Instgram before Instagram, kids!) But the other day, someone “Favourited” this pic on the site and getting that notification reminded me how Flickr was my “go to” for looking at/sharing online photos for many years and […]
A week ago, I was noting that the Flames’ first victory should be celebrated as I didn’t know how these chronic underachievers that I support would fare through the rest of the year. A week later, I (and many in Flames fandom) are stunned at an almost unprecedented road trip run… Whether that level […]
I feel like this is worth acknowledging…hopefully not because it’s a rarity this year!
