Time truly is a flat circle

 

[Volica]

3 things in life are certain.

Life, Death and Mike Stone being a Flame.

 

[Corpus X]

Stone will soon be the current longest resident Flame. Super

 

[Rubi]

Shocking.

Maybe not the longest, but could possibly be the most number of contracts.

I was making a joke DUBE! Geez.

Michael Jordan signed one year contracts with the Bulls in 96, 97, 98.

Michael Stone is our Michael Jordan of Hockey, obviously.

Calgary Flames are entering Oiler/Buffalo territory for one of the worst run professional sports teams in hockey.

Absolute disgusting off season.

I honestly liked Stone last year but how many years are Kylington and Valimaki suppose to wait to gain real nhl experience. I'm so tired of hearing that they make mistakes then we give them no real time to learn, Sam bennett all over again

Unfortunately they aren't we are the step above that which is straight up irrelevant, being absolutely trash atleast comes with a McDavid eventually.

I would have been fine with a Stone deal as a 6/7 if not for the Gudbranson signing right before hand. Other than Zadorov and Tanev the rest of our D are 24 and under. Stone is a decent PKer and not much else really.

I completely agree if Stone was the 7th d man I would be fine but that means Gudbranson is playing most nights so gag me with a spoon.

The only thing I can think of is we are trading Andersson or Hanifin but for what idk

 

[CamPopplestone]

I like it just because of how much it triggers JPeeper tbh

 

[joescores]

Michael Stone all the way. Great addition.... f*** me, what s shit team

 

[Anglesmith]

Stone looked pretty good last season, so for $750k there isn't much to complain about with this signing.... in a vacuum.

The younglings need to beat Stone IMO.

He is fine as a spare dman

anything more than that is a disaster waiting

I have no issue with the signing and Stone wants to be in Calgary so he probably would play for nothing for the rest of his career. After his playing days are done, they can promise to make him a team clown like Conroy or something.

Is that something you'd say to Conroy in person? If not why did you say it? Just so you know, you're not hurting Craig Conroy but you are hurting yourself and people's perspective of you. Building is far superior to tearing down.

Ok Craig, I would say it to you in person. If you are actually helping Treliving, I’d even think less of you

And when you say that, he won't listen to your fantastic ideas for fixing the team! A spoon full of sugar helps the medicine go down. ... In the most delightful way. An Eastern Mystic told me this deep advice after I gave him my lunch money and a pack of cigars.

They have since 2018, doesn't mean shit.

Kylington makes one mistake, sits for 14 games, Stone makes 7 mistakes a period, by the end of the game he is on the top pairing.
