Calgary Flames

Four’s A Crowd: Inside the Calgary Flames’ Crowded Crease

For the past decade, the Calgary Flames crease has been a model of stability, the undisputed home of former Vezina Trophy winner Miikka Kiprusoff. A knee injury suffered last week has led to a flurry of roster moves as the team scrambles to find wins without him. A week ago, the Flames had two goaltenders ...

Leland Irving’s Trial by Fire

While their divisional rivals in Vancouver wrestle with an envious goaltending controversy, the Calgary Flames find themselves mired in a terrible start that they will have to now dig out of without goaltending stalwart Miikka Kiprusoff.   Kiprusoff felt some discomfort in the second period of Calgary’s 4-1 win over Detroit this week (just their ...

Tomas Tatar The New Jiri Hudler?

As one Czechoslovakian winger leaves Detroit, another steps in. Last night was Tomas Tatar’s season debut in a Red Wings sweater against Calgary, and it was also Jiri Hudler’s debut at the Joe in something other than a Red Wings sweater. Interestingly enough, Tatar found himself competing against Hudler in his season debut, while at the time ...

Calgary Flames beat Detroit, lose Miikka Kiprusoff to injury

It was an evening of mixed results for the Calgary Flames on Tuesday. The Flames played their second road game of the 2012-13 season and captured their second win by a 4-1 score over the Detroit Red Wings. Captain Jarome Iginla snapped a six-game goal-less drought and crept within one goal of the legendary Dale ...

Five reasons why the Calgary Flames are better than their record

Two weeks after the beginning of the 2012-13 National Hockey League season, the Calgary Flames have one win in six games. Sitting with a 1-3-2 record, and just four of a possible 12 points, the Flames are second-last in the NHL’s standings. But the club’s win-loss record doesn’t tell the real story. Through six games, ...

Leland Irving: Flames new back-up ready at a moment’s notice

After several seasons trying to make his mark, goaltender Leland Irving has finally landed in the National Hockey League. Following a week-long training camp, the netminder was named as the back-up to Calgary Flames starter Miikka Kiprusoff. The 24-year-old native of Barrhead, Alberta now becomes the ninth different back-up netminder in Calgary since the arrival ...

Stempniak keeps Calgary Flames afloat in turbulent first week

After an abbreviated training camp, the Calgary Flames began the 2012-13 NHL season on a Sunday afternoon, a little less than 24 hours after most of the rest of the league. Almost in keeping with that odd start to the year, the Flames played four games with varying results. The constant in that turbulent opening ...

What, Me Flames Blogger?

Dear Jay Feaster: Hi. Yes, it’s me. THAT guy. The guy who is an Oilers blogger, but on this site, I’m a Flames blogger. Please Flames fans, don’t stop reading this blog. I can explain. As an Oilers blogger, I’m suppose to hate the Flames, right? I’m suppose to declare daily how great my team ...

Flames Tease with Strong First Period in Season Opener

The abbreviated season brought about by the NHL lockout will have numerous effects that traditional 82-game regular seasons do not have.  As the NHL season is limited to 48 games, there is now no such thing as a luxurious error.  The season itself is a sprint so teams must play accordingly, truly treating each period ...
