you guys are certainly surprising the entire league. your youth is providing you with heart, passion, energy, and timely scoring.

young kids also tend to disappear for stretches of the season so the name of the game for you guys should be consistency.

I agree. Monahan has looked phenominal it's amazing he was only taken at the 6 spot. He has played just as well at the NHL level as any player taken in his draft.

impressed with the Flames and Monahan specifically.....better days ahead for the Flames!

Monahan was awesome but what about that pass from Baertschi...

I only said it because the flames twitter always uses it ... I honest hope that doesn't stick ... Loving those two together right now ... Long term I'd love to see a big speedy winger with finish along side of them ..

Are you insane?! No way in hell you get GlenX AND a 2nd. More like the other way. A 25-30 goal scorer that plays with grit and speed on THE BEST CONTRACT IN THE LEAGUE and you want more for a guy that hasn't cracked your team yet?

Maybe Stepan for GlenX.... Although we all know he's not waiving his no trade and nor should he after the discount he gave the Flames.

The Thornton comment was a throwaway comment between team mates. Whoever decided to turn that into a news story is an idiot. Way to make sure you never get a genuine comment from a player for the rest of your sports reporting career.

You mean between team mates and a throng of 20 reporters with cameras?

Yes Reporters who were supposed to be leaving the room

Yo, in that picture is he holding a beer or a bottle of smelling salts? I was just reading at http://smellingsalts.org and didn't realize they used them is the NFL so much. Anyone know if the NHL allows them??
