Flames Could Start 2020-21 Season With 3 Top Lines

January 12th, 2021 With training camp winding down, Calgary Flames head coach Geoff Ward has done a lot of juggling with his forward lines, employing multiple options at the center position in the process. We've also seen Andrew Mangiapane, Josh Leivo and Dominick Simon all spend time on a line with Sean Monahan and Johnny Gaudreau, while Dillon Dube has...

Kings Fans Will Miss the Doughty-Tkachuk Rivalry in 2020-21

January 9th, 2021 One of the best parts about hockey is the intenseness of a good rivalry. Over the years, there have been many, between both teams and individuals. But one of the most noteworthy of the last few years has been the feud between Los Angeles Kings defenseman Drew Doughty and Calgary Flames forward Matthew Tkachuk. With their respective...

Flames News & Rumors: Tkachuk, Andersson, Kuznetsov & More

January 8th, 2021 In this edition of Calgary Flames News & Rumors, I’ll share news from the Flames’ training camp.

As well, there are a number of organizational issues in getting the team together for the...
Flames Have New Challenge as Perry Joins Canadiens

Flames Have New Challenge as Perry Joins Canadiens

December 31st, 2020 The Calgary Flames won't be catching a break from Corey Perry anytime soon, as the league-known agitator has signed a one-year deal with the Montreal Canadiens. Typically, this wouldn't pose a significant issue for the Flames, but since the NHL's realignment of their divisions, the Flames will go head-to-head with Perry and the Habs...
Red Wings Have $9.5 Million in Cap Space...5 Fun Ways to Spend It

Red Wings Have $9.5 Million in Cap Space...5 Fun Ways to Spend It

December 24th, 2020 With the NHL announcing their plans for how the 2020-21 season would commence, I thought I'd look at nine fun ways for the Red Wings to spend their $9.5 million cap space to reach the upper limit of $81.5 million. This is meant to be a fun and satirical piece as I'm not looking to speculate on rumours or potential mock trades, nor am I...

Flames 12 Days of Hockeymas: 4 Highest Picks in Franchise History

December 21st, 2020 The ’12 Days of Christmas’ is a classic holiday song first published in its current form in 1908. In a nod to the classic carol, join The Hockey Writers as we count down the 12 Days of Hockeymas. Each day, we will provide you with a piece of hockey history as we eagerly await the start of the 2020-21 NHL season. For the fourth...
Flames Have a Lot to Work on This Season

Flames Have a Lot to Work on This Season

December 20th, 2020 In the upcoming 2020-21 season, the Calgary Flames must show that they are on track to contend for a Stanley Cup in the next few years. That means making it out of the Canadian division playoffs (assuming one is established) and on to at least the equivalent of a conference final in whatever playoff format the league adopts. If that...
Flames Have Some Pretty Intense On-Ice Rivalries

Flames Have Some Pretty Intense On-Ice Rivalries

December 15th, 2020 Rivalries are what sports are built on; when two teams keep us coming back for more. These games transcend others because the stakes are higher—the triumphs greater, the losses more stinging. Deny it as we might, we love to have our hearts ratchet between jubilance and loathing, sorrow and schadenfreude (or 'Chiadenfreude' as...
Flames' Best Contracts for 2020-21

Flames' Best Contracts for 2020-21

November 18th, 2020 Earlier this week, I wrote a post on the Calgary Flames' worst three contracts for the 2020-21 season. Thankfully for the Flames, they have many more good contracts than bad, something that was mentioned in the previous article. As a result, they have been a very competitive team for a number of seasons now, and that won’t change for...
Flames' 2010s First-Round Picks Ranked

Flames' 2010s First-Round Picks Ranked

October 29th, 2020 The 2010s were an interesting decade for the Calgary Flames. For the most part, their first-round picks did not pan out as they had hoped. Usually, this would result in a very unsuccessful franchise. However, thanks to some great picks in the later rounds, they have made the playoffs in four of the last six seasons, including 2019-20....
Top 10 Dirtiest NHL Players

Top 10 Dirtiest NHL Players

October 16th, 2020 Hockey is played hard and fast. Athletes will hook, trip, face wash and pester to gain a winning edge. Like all sports, hockey has official rules and unwritten rules. It also has a code of respect. And there are many players that blur the lines between the two. Or cross them entirely. They can be downright dirty. These dirty,...
The 5 Best Agitators in the NHL

The 5 Best Agitators in the NHL

September 9th, 2020 What does it take to be a good agitator in today's NHL? Obviously, you must have the ability to get under the opponent's skin, but you don't want to be consistently putting your team at a disadvantage by taking silly penalties. You have to be able to annoy your opponent on the scoresheet as well and you certainly can't be a waste of a...
Flames Have Future Captain in Matthew Tkachuk

Flames Have Future Captain in Matthew Tkachuk

September 3rd, 2020 It didn’t take long for criticism to be thrown at some of the Calgary Flames players after they were eliminated by the Dallas Stars in the first round of the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs. While many players disappointed, the two getting the brunt of the criticism were forwards Johnny Gaudreau and Sean Monahan. Just days later, their...
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...
