Bob Mackenzie said the Flames in running for Kovalchuk? for Phaneuf rumors?? Holy F-ck! is the Flames GM on acid? i would package that deadbeat up with a 1st rd pick or Jokinen and any 2 prospects for Kovalchuk..I would hate it being a Canuck fan but if that was even remotely offered you would be f-ckin stupid to not pull the trigger right away

How sad is this, I was just flipping thru the channels and came across 'Flames TV" on Sportsnet. Well they had the coach responsible for their PP. When asked about the lack of production he said It's a work in progress

Now the season started in October and we are now in late January...And it's still a 'work in progress'? I'm don't understand hockey cliches all that well BUT I translate that to mean: "I know it sucks and I don't have a clue how to fix it"

**Interesting trade rumor** When you consider what Dion has done over the past year and 1/2...maybe not a bad thing. The main thing is can they sign Ilya????

I would just be happy enough to be rid of his contract and then use the money to sign some decent forwards let alone resigning Kovy

Something needs to help this PP.. you look at all the one goal games and the pathetic PP.. doesnt take a genious... there is absolutely no net presence on our PP... opposing teams just need to pressure the outside forwards and get an easy dump

Much is being written about the Calgary Flames and their recent struggles. From Puck Buddy Alex B.: "It's now been 31 games since the Flames won in regulation when the other team scores more than once. They have won a total of two games in that span when the other team scores two goals, both via shootout. Simply put, the Calgary Flames, without one good month (November) and Miikka Kiprusoff, would be worse then the Edmonton Oilers right now. I keep hearing from the media that the Flames are struggling, they're slumping, but 31 games? That's nearly half the season, that's not a slump!"

I said in my pre-season prediction... Besides Kipper & Iggy not much else. People I know laughed and said "Come on there is Dion, Jay on D and what about Olie..." Well.. where are they???

I think the Canadian Olympic Team sums up the Flames season up in a nutshell. During the pre-season camp, the Flames sent 4 players. Everybody (broadcaster, experts etc etc) said that 3 of those maybe 4 would make the Canadian squad. Well, we all know how many DID make it!!! That says all there needs to be said about their season to date..period.

Are you guys taking notes? to beat the Hawks you dont need to roll up into the fetal position and hope they dont kick you in the head or the balls..just play them like any other team,unless you dont have the talent?..sorry my mistake..i forgot you have 1 player

It also helps if your goalie makes 43 saves.

I would argue that Kipper played just as well as Luongo did last night.

Yea he did BUT he doesn't have team around him like Loungo does!!! They can score goals!!!

Kipper was the only reason Chicago didnt blow us out again... like aginor said.. we cant score worth a damn... ever since we shifted our early season focus cause of goals against, we havent been able to score ****...

Or even get more than one scoring chance for in a game.. all perimeter activity... Vancouver/Edmonton... only fin teams we can beat now

Your so ****** the Canucks and Oil obviously take the Flames for granted..can you beat the lowly Blues? i havent heard

Did the FLAMES WIN tonight....I heard they were leading the Blues 5-0??

werent the Flames fans always saying the Canucks couldnt score? i think we are right up there near the top,and its obvious that Iginla was and will always be the only reason the Flames can or cannot score..are you guys last in goals for yet? there must be a reason Lundmark the Heat player is always up? has a miniscule amount of offensive talent

HAHAHA SHUT OUT at home..question? dont you need to score goals to win the Stanley cup? if every game is 0-0 they dont have the shootout in the playoffs you know?
