Based Rick Ball bitching about the speed limit in Banff National Park being only 90.

That one is dumb but even dumber is Highway 1 being 80 by COP until you're well out of the city. Brand new 4 lane highway. 80km/hr

I haven't driven it in a while as it was still under massive construction the last time I went through it, but yeah, huge stretch where it's 80 and no work is being done.

That's gorgeous! Nice play.

 

[Felidae]

f*** yeah Weegar.

Nice passing play too.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Weegles!

Great pass from Greer

 

[JPeeper]

Weegar is a completely different player than he was last year, for the better. He was already improving late into last year, but his dominance at the Worlds really upped his confidence for this year.

This is one reason why I feel all the people bitching about Huberdeau are COMPLETELY out to lunch, the guy is still a talented player, he just has the confidence levels equal to me right now. Not saying he hasn't been bad, but the overreactions after a dozen games are hysterical.

 

[deleted user]

More of that. Moaarrr.

Goddamn Pospisil is a little shit disturber lol.

 

[Bounces R Way]

I love Pospisil. What a f***in f***er

They're trading little shoves and jabs, Pospisil isn't the type to not get that last one in. Love it lol.

Weegar is just playing smarter I think. He took a lot of risks in Florida and sometimes they'd be costly. Also, id say Calgary defensively is better than Florida when Weegar was there, so that helps.

A dozen games? It's been more than a full season now. I think flames fans have a right to be upset at Huberdeau's play at this point.

I still think he has it in him, but that doesn't make it any less frustrating.

Pospisil is much more entertaining than Ruzicka who just float mostly

 

[deleted user]

Ruzicka will get it going, I think. May be still not 100%. Though I know it's a bit of a issue -- the consistency thing, with him. God, when he's on.. he's on.

I still stand by my Huberdeau opinions. He hasn't shown shit so far and he's only good at one thing and we don't play a style that he will get to use it much. He's going to be terrible here unless they change the style and get him a center like Bennett. Confidence may be a problem for him but him gaining some won't solve his flaws as a player.

Love seeing the Blasty jersey's. How did the 1st period go?
I was at an OHL game tonight. Niagara Ice Dogs beat the Barrie Colts 5-2. Fun game.

Markstrom looked fine outside of the goal. He'd likely want that back, I think. Not terrible but Vancouver had a lot of pressure. Great play on the goal Weegar scored.

Definitely need more against these Nucks.

Oh man, damn! Greer another great pass.

 

[Felidae]

Godamn, post!

 

[JPeeper]

Flames need to trade Tanev before he injures himself too badly.

 

[deleted user]

Woooot!!

 

[Tofveve]

BOOBS WITH A MUSTACHE!!!!

 

[Felidae]

That was unexpected. But I'll take it.

 

[Bounces R Way]

Wearing the Blasty means Dube is a lock to score.

Told ya. Hopefully @flames23 bet on it

 

[Felidae]

Like the pace of our game this 2nd half of the period.

Same, they are doing much better. Hoping they don't let off the gas.
