Can't always get what you want.

 

[Deadpool8812]

Well there's 15 other teams your GM can trade you to

 

[DJJones]

This whole board is going to be about Calgary's defense haha.

At least Gio is safe.

 

[Rangediddy]

It's not really up to you Michael.

 

[HomeAndHome]

Can't always get what you want.

But, if you try sometimes, you just might find, you get what you need.

Unite the Stones.

 

[Paulinvancouver]

wow.

...has he BEEN to Calgary?

 

[blankall]

wow.

...has he BEEN to Calgary?

A lot of hockey players are simple people. They don't need the congestion of a major city. Plus, by all accounts, the Flames are a great organization to play for. They are also one of the few Canadian teams with a press and fanbase that doesn't poison their own team.

And I want a gold plated Rolls Royce. #packyourshit

 

[DomBarr]

wow.

...has he BEEN to Calgary?

I've been to Vancouver and I wouldn't want to move there...to each their own...

It's Edmonton that players have an issue with...LOL

 

[Ouroboros]

He heard his name being linked to Ottawa and got scared.

oh i'm aware, it was one of those things I clung to when I lived in Calgary for 7 years too, but the place is a shithole and it was long past time for me to escape.

Haha ya from your tone sounds like you made the correct decision. Probably lots of complaints about bike paths and the music scene.

Being a Calgary native I don't really think it's all that great either, but if you really think it's a shithole you must have lived a very charmed life.

I grew up in Calgary and live in Vancouver. Calgary is most certainly not a #$%hole. It's very clean and the people are great. You can still own a very nice property there. It's not a metropolitan city, but, once again, that's not for everyone. Calgary offers a pretty great experience somewhere between a small town and a big city.

Most Canadian cities are though, high quality of life and standards but boring, spread out, and dead. It’s like living in purgatory, if the metaphor makes sense.

 

[Yarborough]

I can think of worse places to live, way, way worse places.

 

[Brock Radunske]

Maybe you should have thought of that before you decided to suck, Mikey.
