we've all been living a LIE!!!

 

[LightningStrikes]

Unbelievable how ****** the quality of all those YT videos is. I thought we won in 2004 not 1974.

 

[The Macho King]

Damn... I just got chills. I hope we get back - there's nothing like a deep playoff run to get the blood pumping.

 

[LightningStrikes]

Filppula - Stamkos - Callahan
Palat - Johnson - Kucherov
Drouin - Namestnikov - Paquette

Will be a tough one, Flames are much improved and Giordano - Brodie is one of the better defense pairs is the league.

I would be so happy to post there my little analysis on stamkos' stats, but excel accidentaly crashed when i was creating a graph and everything was lost.

But there are some things that I've noticed and can still remember:
1. Stamkos shouldn't play with Flip, because they have, in comparsion with other lines, quite awful stats (Goals For %, Corsi For %)
2. Flip shouldn't be playing on the top line. So far, he had a little bad stats. Every percentages I have mentioned are below 50% with only 1 exception - He can produce goals with Alex Killorn.
3. Drouin should be playing with Stammer more. They might have just balanced stats, but the kid is growing fast, imho.

Somebody needs to tweet this to @CoopersLaw before the game starts.

If Monahan can play first line Center as a 20 year old for the Flames. And Burakovsky can play 1st line Center for Ovechkin as a 19 year old...Drouin can play top 6 minutes on Stammer's wing - no doubt about it.

Is Nigel Kirwan the only one from players, coaching staff, training staff, or front office left from the 2003-2004 SCF series?

Is Kubina doing anything with the organization?

Feaster and Andy. Although in different roles now of course.

also Mulligan (trainer), Thill (equipment), Belec (assistant to the GM then, Dir. of Team Services now), Kari Kettunen (scout), and Bill Wickett (communications)

I think this will be the logical progression when Killorn and Connolly come back, but for now gives time for Drouin to get some experience playing lesser competition

I didn't like Filpulla and Drouin together. I think Drouin carrying the puck, Stamkos the triggerman and Callahan the do everything cog would be a strong line

Then you have really strong depth at C with Stamkos,Johnson,Filpulla,Boyle

No, Ray Thill and Tom Mulligan are still here.

Flames have some nice pieces on there team and with good performance in net make them a tough opponent. But I'll always back our boys to win at home, heres to a good game.

Expecting a tight game. I have a bet on a draw tonight but I wouldn't be too bummed if we would win in regulation.

and Forsberg on the first line with Neal and Riberio.
