[Zoombie]

GFG. This is the matchup we need to get us out of the basement imo.

How badly does everyone want Hudler and Czervenka in the lineup! I'm so pumped for the game Saturday!

There we go

I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.

3-2 Vancouver OT

I feel thin, sort of stretched, like butter scraped over too much bread.

I'm old Gandalf... I don't look it, but I feel it!

 

[Gritty]

I've never predicted a Flames loss, far be it from me to start now!

4 - 3 Flames OT.

I'm expecting a big game from Cammy tonight.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

The way these teams have been playing...

9-6 for Vancouver. All four goalies get ice time tonight!

 

[Svenner]

I think kipper bounces back tonight with a solid performance

 

[FLAMESFAN]

That has to be the worst forward lineup Vancouver has had for a long time. When was the last time you could say we had more depth then they did?
Bury your chances boys, make them panic on the coast!

 

[tmurfin]

Time for Kipper and Cammy to pick it up! Lets go boys, first win of the season!


Go Flames Go!!

 

[Turning Mangiapanese]

I want to see Luongo in goal by the 3rd period. The Canucks goalie drama is awesome, I hope it lasts all season.

6-2 Flames.

 

[The Gnome]

If kipper doesn't **** the bed like he did against ANA we could win. Defense still has to be tougher in front of our own net

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

Ah cahnd believe is naht bahdur



spray.

 

[Bosnian Beast]

^^

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

What's funny is everytime anyone says "I can't believe it's not butter", I *always* follow it with "spray" just because of this one horrible commercial from the 80's. It's embedded into my mind.

 

[TheHudlinator]

I wish would start Irving it would be good to get him a game early and Kipper has looked pretty bad to start.

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

We need Kipper to play well this game!

5-3 Flames


GFG!

 

[InfinityIggy]

I wish would start Irving it would be good to get him a game early and Kipper has looked pretty bad to start.

I want to see Irving play soon, but we need to play Kipper until he is adjusted and shaken the rust off. Benching him now will compound those issues.

 

[TheHudlinator]

New D pairings
Jbo - Gio
Brodie - Widemen
Smith - Sarich
Butler is out today.

 

[TheHudlinator]

I want to see Irving play soon, but we need to play Kipper until he is adjusted and shaken the rust off. Benching him now will compound those issues.

I disagree this season is about winning if Irving gives us a better chance (couldn't be much worse then Kipper monday) then I would give him the start it would be the first time in years Kipper would have to work to get playing time 1 game isn't going to ruin him.

 

[Beats By CoRD]

Baertschi playing with Stajan and Comeau? I know Hartley is experimenting but let's pray this works. Very high risk move here IMO. Sven needs to play with some skill and was really hoping him and Backlund would become a top duo.

Don't have a good feeling about this one. Kipper needs to bounce back like he always does.
