RUPERTKBD Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 But Calgary IS a joke with Bob Hartless at the helm. Guy creeps me out...wish Torts had got in there that day. Beyond that, I'm kind of glad their team picked it up and we can renew an old rivalry just like the good old days. I can't stand Hartley either, but I have a hard time holding that against the players. Being from Calgary is all the motivation that I need to dislike the Flames.

Banned01 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Let the rivalry renew If the Flames beat the Nucks you know there is going to be some serious around here... Bring it on... For a team that was supposed to be in the bottom three going for McDavid. Even if they had missed the playoffs Flames fans would have been ok. Now that they have made the playoffs, all exceeding expectations. If they beat the Nucks though that takes it to a whole new level of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALGARY! Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 But Calgary IS a joke with Bob Hartless at the helm. Guy creeps me out...wish Torts had got in there that day. Beyond that, I'm kind of glad their team picked it up and we can renew an old rivalry just like the good old days. Like him or not that creep is a great coach. He came here with a plan, the youngsters bought in, and now they are taking off and forming a heck of a core doing so. Not to mention, he'll likely be a Jack Adams finalist, if not win the trophy. But yes, a rivalry will be fun, still wish Edmonton would pick it up too, that rivalry's funner, its only a 2.5 hour drive haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aGENT Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Not going to dig up my old post but I never though Calgary was a "joke" if I recall. They've certainly surprised me with their ability to keep coming as I thought they'd start to fade in the second half, particularly given how they play. But going forward they're building a darn good team (and seem to be a pretty decent one now). Edmonton is still Edmonton though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a few interesting debates here but I do poke around for the memes and gifs which are always entertaining... I'm not sure you've learned much in your absence. I see the stuff you're posting regarding guys like RNH, Eberle, Hall - how Edmonton has "dug it's own grave" with their contracts, are "locked in" to those players, and how they've "fapped" and "squirted" prematurely - and I have to wonder not only about your ability to look realistically at player values, but whether you have any idea what a "fact" is. You come accross more as someone who likes to agitate with superficial material, wears homer glasses, and resorts to trolling your rivals - in this case, on your rivals message board. You've marched into this thread without apparently reading it nor realizing the majority of the perspectives here. If you merely want some simplistic trash talk, hey bring that on, but if you actually read the material here, you'll realize that a lot of folks here have a pretty good idea and appreciation of how well Treliving has managed to turn the Flames around. Anyhow. good luck with that uppity act of yours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I head over to CP and read the Bob Hartley quotes thread, that thread is just comic gold. But most of us agree on one thing; Calgary has no place in the title of this thread, the OP is just being stubborn keeping it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow. good luck with that uppity act of yours. You obviously are not one of them. The team you are looking at today with the exception of Hiller, Raymond and Eng is almost entirely a result of Feaster with a few Sutter Vets. Hiller is by far the most significant contribution to this team by BT. To say nothing of the coach which Feaster got and is in the Jack Adams conversation. Lets go through the Roster to illustrate how clueless you are on what GM either drafted or acquired what players. Sutter (5) Mikael Backlund / Lance Bouma / T. J. Brodie / Mark Giordano © / Matt Stajan Feaster (14) + coach Hartley Paul Byron / Joe Colborne / Michael Ferland / Johnny Gaudreau / Jiri Hudler (A) / David Jones / Josh Jooris / Sean Monahan / Emile Poirier / Corey Potter / Karri Ramo / Kris Russell (A) / Ladislav Smid / Dennis Wideman (A) BT (really it is just Hiller and maybe Raymond for impact but we can try and stretch it to (7) Mason Raymond (BT) Raphael Diaz (BT) Deryk Engelland (BT) Brandon Bollig (BT) Jonas Hiller (BT) David Schlemko (BT) Drew Shore Either way over half of this team is of Feaster's doing and your suggestion that BT has turned this team around is completely uninformed. What BT has done right is get NHL level goaltending and stay in the background and let Hartley do his job. You might just want to sit down or try doing 2 minutes of searching on google before you comment again... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also added to the organization's depth by signing David Wolf, Kenney Morrison, & Garnet Hathaway. I'm not hacking on Feaster, he did some good things and some bad things; but now he is gone.

Banned01 Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 tell is why you think it's possible that the flames will beat the canucks, Better coaching, better conditioning, discipline (low penalties) and blocked shots and better 5 on 5. I also think the Flames have better resiliency. They will fight right to the last minute of the last game. The Canucks will win if the series has a lot of whistles. Their PP and special teams is superior. Goaltending is also in the Nucks favor plus Sedins... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldnews Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Hmmmmm, interesting... The whole thread is like a pile of bad karma going into the playoffs... The Calgary Flames haven't been considered a joke around here for some time. Someone like you coming here and posting this without reading what most people in this thread actually think, however, is a joke. You're late to the rodeo and have no idea what you're going on about. Welcome back. I see you're the same deluded, obnoxious poster you were when you were banned for what you tell yourself was posting "truth".

Mustapha Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 I often post links for what I say and make pretty neutral observations in what is already hostile ground. If you think CDC is 'hostile ground' then I guess you don't frequent Calgarypuck. Of course, CP is generally less hostile to Flames fans....and absolutely disgusting and vile to everyone else, regardless of their opinion. I was banned simply for suggesting that Mike Vernon had a better career than Miikka Kiprusoff (which is easy to prove) I think I remember you....I think you are the one who tried to convince me that J-Bo was a good deal for Calgary.....SMH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny how clueless they are. Our regulars are coming back and he can clear waivers so he jumps back down the depth chart. It's pretty simple. Yet they're taking every opportunity to bash him at every turn. It's sad how quick they turned on him and now spew venom in his direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
