Least excited I've been in years. Bunch of guys already have one foot out the door, no name brand coach which brings tons of uncertainty, and a total lack of cohesive strategy going forward. The only thing that I'm looking forward to is actually seeing prospects get a shot for once.

Those are better looking team formats than last year. I'm pumped!

I enjoy how binary the whole situation is though. He's going to be good, or he's going to be bad.

Oh, and before you ask... mediocre = bad.

Time to have my heart broken for the 20th time, LET'S f***ING GO!!!!!!

And the pain begins once again…

Just fold the franchise already

I'm honestly rooting for Kylington, but this is crazy.. I hope whatever is going on that he's okay and the team has a full grasp.

 

[Fig]

I don't mean to pry or need to know what's wrong. I just basically hope as a fan to hear news that he's working with the right people to be on the best track for overcoming his personal issue.

I wish him the best and I hope he figures it out.

 

[super6646]

Just fold the franchise already

At some point the question about moving on arises. I mean he got paid last year to do pretty much nothing, if there are still issues then I certainly can't see a future of him as an NHLer, let alone a Calgary Flame.

Hope that isn't the case.

 

[Tkachuk Norris]

Dong too long?

Seriously though. I don’t feel much sympathy for anyone that plays hockey for a million dollars. Get your poop in a group bud.

Sign Zadorov ASAP

 

[Kranix]

He failed fitness?

Just fold the franchise already

Hanifin looking to leave, Zad on the last year of his contract, Tanev on the last year of his contract,... and now this lovely bit of news.
This pretty well sums up the way I feel...

As I said in the Kylington thread, it might be as simple as him needing to find new meds, as some meds can cause false positives.

That said, it took my doctors months upon months to get my meds right.

 

[Khrox]

As for Kylington, on top of being med issues, it could also be conditioning issues (we don't know what his training was like in the last year, so his conditioning could be bad enough to warrant a "miss start of training camp" to focus on it instead).

It seems randomly sudden though if they had to use testing to discover this.

Could it also be a situation where if he's taking something, that it turns out it's something he's taking that's allowed in the EU that isn't allowed here based on NHL rules? To address it, they're working on finding an alternative here that is allowed and works for Ollie?

Nah if that is the issue, we'd know by now as it'd be confirmed in the lab. No point in speculating.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

I think they should make the players earn the captaincy in a series of one on one physical challenges.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

He's a talkative guy.

 

[Rubi]

Does anyone know if the pre-season games that aren't being broadcast on SN or TSN will be streamed through the Flames website or anywhere else?

A video that could have been a tweet - if not on TV it’ll be streamed on the Flames website. Except the split squad in Seattle.

You know, I'm no NHL coach, but I know what I hate.

I don't hate this.

This line is bold, but beautiful.
