Flames Suffered Through 13 Goalies Between Kiprusoff and Markstrom

Flames Suffered Through 13 Goalies Between Kiprusoff and Markstrom

January 1st, 2021 When the legendary Miikka Kiprusoff retired in 2013, the Calgary Flames faced the conundrum of where they would find their next "Kipper." They looked at all options. They increased the scope of their overseas scouting, they made trades, and they dipped into the free-agent pool. And until now, it's all been for naught. At no other point...
Revisiting the Flyers' 8-Goalie Season

Revisiting the Flyers' 8-Goalie Season

December 17th, 2020 The Philadelphia Flyers set a dubious and embarrassing record during the 2018-19 season. They became the first team in NHL history to use eight different goalies in one season. The revolving door between the pipes helped contribute to a sixth-place finish (37-37-8 record) in the Metropolitan Division. The bulk of the blame for the...
Minnesota Wild Offseason GM Report Card

Minnesota Wild Offseason GM Report Card

December 12th, 2020 National Hockey League general managers seldom have a chance to put their feet up. Whether they’re assessing talent at the junior ranks, or looking for ways to improve their clubs via trades or free agency, a GM’s job is never easy.  Long-time NHL player Bill Guerin is entering his second full season in charge of the...
Talbot, Stalock Give the Wild a Stable Goaltending Tandem for 2020-21

Talbot, Stalock Give the Wild a Stable Goaltending Tandem for 2020-21

December 6th, 2020 There was quite a goaltending carousel this offseason with several teams heading into this upcoming season with a new look in-between the pipes, and the Minnesota Wild are one of them. This Offseason After six seasons in the state of hockey, the Wild were clearly ready to move on from Devin Dubnyk. After posting a .913 save...
4 Minnesota Wild Looking For Big Seasons

4 Minnesota Wild Looking For Big Seasons

November 25th, 2020 The Minnesota Wild remain one of the most fascinating teams heading into 2020-21. After an early and short-lived showing in last season’s playoffs that saw them eliminated in four games at the hands of the Vancouver Canucks, a fresh outlook and new season (whatever that may look like) may be just what the doctor ordered in the State...
How Are the Wild Spending Their COVID-Restricted Offseason?

How Are the Wild Spending Their COVID-Restricted Offseason?

November 22nd, 2020 Do you ever get so caught up in watching professional sports that you forget those athletes are, indeed, real people? I think we're all a bit guilty of that from time to time. Yet, it remains that these superstars lead regular, everyday lives. True story. Many of your favorite Minnesota Wild players spend their free time...
Flames vs Oilers: How They Stack Up After Offseason Moves

Flames vs Oilers: How They Stack Up After Offseason Moves

November 10th, 2020 The 2020 offseason has so far been a major success for the Calgary Flames. General manager Brad Treliving started it off with a terrific draft, and has signed high profile free agents such as Jacob Markstrom and Chris Tanev, as well as great depth in players like Joakim Nordstrom and Dominik Simon. Jacob Markstrom, former Vancouver...
Top 3 All-Time Oilers Goalies

Top 3 All-Time Oilers Goalies

November 3rd, 2020 Goaltending: hockey's most precarious and polarizing position. The masked men often take the blame when the team loses, and receive little credit when they win. They face 100 mph slap shots, and 200 pound players barreling into them. They're quirky, and unique, but no team can get by without a good one. The Edmonton Oilers had the...

Flames Should Avoid Expensive Goalies & Re-sign Talbot

Flames Should Avoid Expensive Goalies & Re-sign Talbot

September 15th, 2020 Elite goaltending is an essential component of a Stanley Cup-winning formula. When a netminder transforms into an acrobatic, rubber-deflecting brick wall during the dog days of a best-of-seven series, the storyline ascends into hockey folklore. But of course, in typical offseason panicky fashion, some NHL general managers, either in a...
Devils Can Address Goaltending Needs in Free Agency

Devils Can Address Goaltending Needs in Free Agency

September 7th, 2020 Goaltending has long been a problem for the New Jersey Devils, to the point where general manager Tom Fitzgerald has to make a move of some sort this offseason. Because if they don't shore things up in net, it'll be hard for the team to take a step forward in 2020-21.  Fortunately, there's a pretty decent group of...
Flames' Playoff Letdown Could Lead to Offseason Moves

Flames' Playoff Letdown Could Lead to Offseason Moves

August 31st, 2020 Heading into this season, the expectations were clear: If the 2019-20 version of the Calgary Flames didn’t make any meaningful improvements upon last years' results, a roster shake-up was due. The previous five campaigns have alternated between missed playoffs and early-round exits. While they technically notched a series win...

Flames News & Rumors: Gaudreau, Talbot, Monahan & More

August 24th, 2020 It was a total meltdown for the Calgary Flames during their final game of the season. The Flames built a 3-0 lead on goals by Andrew Mangiapane, Johnny Gaudreau, and Rasmus Andersson. But then things fell apart and the Dallas Stars scored seven straight goals to win the game 7-3. Like that, the Flames were doused from the...
