Whoa little bit of chaos, to add to the excitement. Good game, over all I say we outplayed them most of that game. Love it
We are playing some exciting hockey. Who's next? Haha

These guys are sure fun to watch. Even Neil had a few chances.

Trochu · #**2733** 01-07-2019, 09:10 PM

6 out of 8 on the road, well done guys!

You need to get Rittich bigger shoulder pads or a wider head!

So do we have a consensus on Delia? I figure that could have been a 6-3 or 7-3 win if he hadn't stood tall.....how do we get him?

gordfishing · #**2737** 01-07-2019, 09:13 PM

Frolik = 9 plus minutes 12 shifts only

I don't think he saw the ice in the third

The agent should tweeting soon

It would very sad to be #67 leave, I think he has a lot to give but must

quit pouting

He made some nice saves, but that did seem like a weak spot tonight.

Yeah, a couple of those were not great, but he still played a good game I thought.

Love to get that kid, looks very promising. Who’s gonna take Smith though

Don’t think they have the cap space.

Might be able to do that, but then we still need to move smith, in order to play dela

Twisted Canuck · #**2745** 01-07-2019, 09:27 PM

Waivers. Flames need to get a bit drastic on Smith imo. Who would take him??

spurly · #**2746** 01-07-2019, 09:30 PM

Not sure if Delia played last year, but I tkink he has only played 5 games this year. He sure plays well though.

Traveling is pretty good at making things like this happen, wouldn't that be awesome. Him and Titter? I would feel damn confidant every game.
Like now, Rittich has played a few games in a row so you know Smith is up here soon and yikes anything can happen.

No. Sit him many more....

We really are looking good. Big home stand before the break. Lots of points available in the rest of January. 7 games, 14 points.

I am going out on a limb here.. I say we get 11/14 points. I was thinking 12 but why be greedy.

Natives are getting restless on that "Other" thread. I guess I have to start being nicer and more sympathetic towards the fact they are having issues. We were accused of being "POOP Stains" THE HORROR!!!!!!

Yup. Play nice

Twisted Canuck · #**2752** 01-07-2019, 10:17 PM

Yeah, well I'm ok being a poop stain and cheering for the 5nd overall..not that I was being a poop stain.

I'd be content pulling 9 points out of the 14, there are some tough games in that lot. Any which way, love the way they are rolling.

Was texting with an old friend and Hawks fan the whole game, he asked if Bennett was playing. Was a fair point. In gritty physical games you really notice him. When it gets really fast like tonight...not so much. Maybe foot speed is his next off season project?

He was pretty quiet tonight. You think he is a keeper?

I just found this, couldnt wait till next game to use it...

WooHoo!

Up until this year I was all for trading him. I think he found is job though. When I see guys like Frolik using is agent as a mouth piece and I look at Sam, I want Sam.

LOLOLOLO.. He didn't have to do that. He must have been feeling guilty or something. I know what he was trying to say. He just has really weak trolling skills. The new rules around these parts have just made it all that much more fun.

I cant help but notice though. They won ONE game and so many of them came flying back to that thread. Bessie is one of the few that really REALLY believe.. How do we get him on our side. You all want to throw in for some tickets and a jersey and some rye at a game?

For me, Sam just has too many quiet nights. If he could just be more consistent, cause when he is on. He is like a bulldog out there.

I am wondering what he will be like in the playoffs? Just the guy we need is my guess.

Trochu · #**2759** 01-07-2019, 11:06 PM

I find it amusing. Alot of people were saying that the Flames had an excellent chance of making the playoffs due to the weak Pacific division (I agreed with the weaker division aspect). They are leading, and assuming the Sharks win, there will be 3 Pacific teams in the top 6 in the league.

Another thing I found interested. Listening to 960 on the way home and apparently Elliott Friedman thinks Ferland and Hamilton will be on the move prior to the trade deadline. Curious what they can get for Hamilton if Carolina moves him and will find it quite amusing if he ends up in Edmonton. Given the numbers and utilization, I think his value had decreased considerably.

I could see Ferly being moved, he is a free agent this summer. Sound like they were trying to resign him, but it was not going well.
Canes need scoring. Edmonton has no cap space, so would more or less have to be contract for contract. Can Edmonton afford to give up a goal scorer.
RNH for Hams?
