Around the Dome v3.0 - Flames news & notes

[Rubi]

It's not pointless though. Sure right now it looks like he is unlikely to be waived and sent to the AHL, but how often have we seen guys look decent for 30 games only to disappoint the following season? If he struggles and looks overwhelmed, he very well could still get waived later in the season.

Even if he struggles I think the chances that he would get waived are somewhere between slim and none and seriously leaning towards the none side. I doubt he would clear waivers without another team taking a chance on him and making a claim.
Too many GMs last season have seen his potential.

He probably won't be waived, but claiming there is no chance is a fools errand.

I read that as “Watch f*** get paid” at least half a dozen times before getting it right .

That might be the only job better than watching hockey

I unfortunately will be too busy to watch...

That’s like the most Canadian show to ever Canadian.

Did anyone watch Big Ern on BOTB?

Did anyone watch Big Ern on BOTB?

I did, he looked good. Not as stiff as Orr, not quite as animated as Sheldon, but he looked comfortable and lifts his partner like she weighs nothing. Looking forward to seeing him put in a few throws.

And the next move is... a double lutz hip check?

The MVP right here. I don't really want to watch the show (just don't care for it), but I totally want to see Big Ern.

Its somewhat refreshing that even with 31 players on the roster our project cap hit is still $6.8 M below the leafs

Interesting. Three AGMs...

Congrats to Snow, he's been our analytics guy since 2011, when he brought the PUCKS analytics system to Calgary.

I thought we had 3 AGM before. It went down to 2 after Maloney was promoted or something?

Maloney was never AGM, he was acquired as a scout and now VP of Hockey Operations.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

He wasn't Assistant General Manager. He was Assistant TO the General Manager.
