honestly...I see it as an advantage right now for the Flames. Extra practice time together.

I kind of agree....they had a few games to see what was working at what wasn't. Now they had some time to work on it even more. Hopefully it pans out!

Living in edmonton, do i hate the flames? No. Would i rather see them win the stanley cup over 2 dozen american teams. You betcha. Which as much as no one will want to hear this, the flames must start their rebuild this season. Its a solid draft and its got to be done. Trade iginla to the pens for a first and a solid defence prospect. Trade kipper to whoever wants him for anything better then a second rounder. I still shake my head at the wideman signing but jay feaster can figure that one out

He's been one of the best Flames so far...great with Brodie

Your another flames meat ball. When you get off the bong and realize the flames arnt good enough to make playoffs nor have they been post lock out. Whats the point of finishing 10 th in the west every year. Ive watched alot of games this year, do i think the oilers are a strong playoff team? No but they have promise. The flames are on a bad downward spiral and the sooner they reslize that the better they will be. They are the maple leafs of the western conference minus they have won a cup in the last 50 years

Look BRAH. Nobody "blows it up" on purpose. The Oilers got lucky, but there's still no guarantee. Do the Flames need to get younger, yes? But if you follow the team you would know they are starting to stack their chips. If done right we will be just as competitive as the Oilers hope to be in 3-4 years, without completely tanking for half a decade.

Except the 3 years they made the playoffs? Are you a New Canadian? your Hockey knowledge is very weak!

There are old Canadians that have very weak hockey knowledge. If you don't believe me go to Ek's blogs.
