Kinda in transit sitting in the (*shudder*) Pierre Trudeau airport in Montreal.

Yeah, you know we always got a bottle on the season Bessie. I don't have a whole lot of excitement going for it, but maybe it will develop as the season goes on. But I will enjoy taking another bottle from you.

Good luck Flames fans!!! Here’s to hoping you make the playoffs so the oil can beat ya down good. Looking forward to our battle of Alberta AO chirp offs !!!
A struggling, aged, rebuilding Chicago team beat your mighty oil from even making the playoffs last year lol.

Well, Bessie, if you haven't had time to reconsider, I'd take you up on your offer.

Whoever has more points when the season ends/is called is the winner?

Feels like the first game of the season goes two ways, every single year, for every single team.

1. We're going to win the Cup, plan the parade route!!!

2. What is our GM thinking, blow it up now while we can get something in return for some of these guys!!!

Man, that first goal against was entirely on Gio.

You can't leave Laine open like that.

Missed the first half of the period, but the boys look like they are working well together. Atta boy Johnny, I hope our special teams are better then last season. Go Flames.

They are playing with a lot of pace so far. Defence is jumping up into the play quite a bit, so far I like what I see from them. Other than the dad goal the gave up to Laine.

Not the same jump in the second but starting to settle now. Can't let them back in though.

True, but its not even been one game yet....

For reference, Hellebuyck won the Vezna last year, he's at 0.813, Price is at 0.853, Jarry's at 0.760, Anderson's at 0.875....

Half those goals aren't his fault ether IMO.

It's unfortunate, was hoping the officials would have sharpened their skills in the off season. Doesn't appear to be the case.

It's only the 2nd period of the season for the Flamer's and you're complaining about the refs??

I guess, if that's complaining.

How many games should I give them if they suck from the start, 10, 25?

It seems like it doesn't it? Either that or Rick Ball's a little slow on the uptake in his first game.

Need to stay out of the box. That one call was weak ugh. Hitting from behind isn't helping the cause.
