I'm kind of interested to see who's going to earn the first ban...

I can give you a few suggestions....

Maybe we can start a pool?

My money is on Scooby.

Really? You didn't just ban whipper to see how it works?

As a Flame ref, you can't make your 1st ban on a Flame fan.... c'mon Lahey, seriously

Well he could ban me, but just make it tell Monday. Post something everyone could look at for 15-25 seconds.

Nah, it's gotta be earned. I want my first one to mean something.

Anyway, back to actual hockey talk....

Re: trading Iggy etc. I think CGY can get away with moving Iggy, Cammi and, depending on the return of the 3, JBo. All 3 should be able to bring back 1st's + prospects of varying degrees. We would remain competitive by keeping Tangs, GlenX, Hudler, Gio & Wideman as the productive vets and guys like Backs, Sven, and TJ being good to solid young players and good role guys like Stemp and I think Cervenka (who looks like he will have decent success in the NHL). Sign a decent FA or 2 and we're fighting for PO. Meanwhile, we have created a solid pool prospect and future wave of Flames players.

IMO it would be more of a 'retool' than a 'rebuild.' And yes in the style of the Sens or PHI.

it would take all 3 to get one first round puck and only if flamers take back salary as well

If you're serious then you are..... wait for it..... dumb!!!

Even Penn15, aka pancakes, brought back a 1st and B prospect.

Let's see what Street can do!

Seriously I really want Taylor to get a shot tomorrow too.......any chance he gets put in even though Leland won last night?

zero, nadda, none... Irving won his only other NHL game vs the Nucks. If Kipper is out for any period, maybe and only if Irving drops a hot steamy one... (pls no jpegs thank you)

Hahaha....no worries on that! I'm just real curious to see what he is like. Irving seems so scrambly in there, granted he's super nervous.
