Flames Have Faith in Talbot's Comeback Season

Flames Have Faith in Talbot's Comeback Season

July 8th, 2019 The Calgary Flames made some modest yet impactful moves thus far since free agency opened on July 1. One of the pressing matters that Flames general manager Brad Treliving tackled early on was the club's longstanding goaltending situation. In search of a goalie that was both affordable and reliable, Treliving extended an offer to...
Should the Flames Consider Bobrovsky?

Should the Flames Consider Bobrovsky?

June 6th, 2019 Goaltending has been an issue plaguing the Calgary Flames for the last several years. It was a recurring problem throughout the entire 2018-19 National Hockey League regular season, and continues to be a hot-button issue leading up to free agency this coming summer. If the Flames want to continue building in the right direction,...
Flames Need More Muscle to Be Cup Contenders

Flames Need More Muscle to Be Cup Contenders

May 24th, 2019 Is it an exaggeration to say that the Calgary Flames got absolutely destroyed in Round 1 of the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs? I don't think so, and I doubt anyone who witnessed that mid-April fiasco would find reason to feel differently (though respectfully, I would love to hear an opposing angle). High off of a break-out season,...
Mike Smith is the Only Thing Going Right for the Flames

Mike Smith is the Only Thing Going Right for the Flames

April 17th, 2019 Recall the night of March 2, when the Calgary Flames home crowd, unhappy with a few bad goals allowed by Flames goaltender Mike Smith, decided to express their frustrations with a flurry of jeers showering down from the stands. Despite playing wonderfully in the preceding games, and having been instrumental in Calgary's seven-game...
Flames' Neal Ends Cold Streak In Final Stretch

Flames' Neal Ends Cold Streak In Final Stretch

April 4th, 2019 Calgary Flames left-winger James Neal is a patient individual. This can be seen by his persistent play all season long, creating numerous scoring opportunities, dealing big hits when they mattered, and overall establishing an irrefutable physical presence on the ice. Despite his efforts, however, the veteran forward continually walked...
Flames Tying up Loose Ends as Playoffs Loom

Flames Tying up Loose Ends as Playoffs Loom

March 25th, 2019 It has been a roller coaster ride for the Calgary Flames in the second half of this 2018-19 NHL regular season. Coming in hot after the holidays to start off 2019, the Flames then faced a number of difficult losing slides down the stretch. Despite their troubles, however, this tenacious Flames club has found a way to bounce back...
Flames’ Goaltending Still in Question as Playoffs Draw Near

Flames’ Goaltending Still in Question as Playoffs Draw Near

March 10th, 2019 For the Calgary Flames, it seemed like the issue was put to bed ages ago. Not only was netminder Mike Smith finally hitting his stride, but newbie goalie David Rittich also looked to be coming into form. In many respects, the Flames appeared to have successfully found a cure to their longstanding netminding vulnerabilities, with two...
Flames Show Signs of Life After Rough Start in February

Flames Show Signs of Life After Rough Start in February

February 20th, 2019 Calgary Flames head coach Bill Peters was in good spirits going into the All-Star break. Having just defeated the Carolina Hurricanes in an overtime thriller to cap off a successful string of victories, the Flames entered their nine-day hiatus in a strong and authoritative position. Peters lauded his club’s performance and...
