Flames are going to come 9th and miss by 2 or 3 points because for the last three and a half decades I've cheered for an entirely mediocre franchise.

vancouver is gonna miss the playoffs thereby keeping their first round pick but are going to be even worse next year when markstrom, toffoli and tanev all walk

only jim benning could have engineered this

While I would enjoy that incredible asset management, there still plenty of time for any/all team(s) from the wet fart division to go on a extended losing streak and miss the playoffs.

I'm glad the economically depressed city of Calgary gave hundreds of millions to Murray Edwards for an arena deal... He's probably had a few tough days on the stock market, sorry minimum wage part-time staff, maybe next global emergency.

There's now a go fund me page up for the hourly staff of the Flames... because the public should help pay for an arena and the hourly employees in times of need.

It's at $43K out of an original $10k target, a lot of the Flames and their families have donated... kill all billionaires.

Robyn Regehr, now there's a name that hasn't even crossed my mind in 15 years, even though looking him up I notice he only retired 5 years ago and won a Cup with the Kings

My old boss told me a story about Regehr, a good friend of his has a cabin on a lake in Saskatchewan next to him. Apparently Regehr does a lot of work around his own place during the offseason and health and safety is more of a suggestion than anything else by the sounds of it.

The guy's making $4 million a year at the time, and he's out on his property running a high powered chainsaw in shorts and sandals... hockey players are smart.

Just browsing hockeydb to form my expert opinions.... Hasek was a pretty average goaltender his first couple of years in the NHL until his save percentage suddenly jumped by 34 points in a year.

The other goalie on Buffalo when that happened was Grant Fuhr.





Hasek wasn't a good goalie until he found the nose candy.
