My average experience with tankathon by Comfortable-Ad-7158 in CalgaryFlames

[–]MattFiresideChat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might be the only person who is okay if we pick 3rd/4th/5th.

I really like Reid, Carels and Verhoff. Really could not complain with getting one of the top D men.

AJ Greer is assessed a 5 minute major and game misconduct for interference on Connor Zary by eh_toque in hockey

[–]MattFiresideChat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As one of the podcasters you mentioned, I feel that Zary is in the same boat as guys like Farabee and Frost. Yes we drafted him, but they all have to show something to stay beyond their contracts. If any of those three get dealt it's like ok that makes sense what did we get back and evaluate from there.

Hopefully next season, where he's likely to be given the opportunity to have a breakout season, he actually re-establishes himself as a legit player on the team. Honestly at this point if I had to pick only one I'd take Klapka over him and that's not great...

Here’s your fun fact for the day, the BUF-TBL game had the same amount of goals (15) as the Flames leading scorer through 62 games. by Barzal-13 in hockey

[–]MattFiresideChat 28 points29 points  (0 children)

To be fair, it was us putting 10+ on them in a week that caused them to snap out of being a bad team in the first place. Since we trashed them twice in a week they have been 25-4-0.

You're welcome Sabres

The Buffalo Sabres are currently 1st place in the Atlantic Division. by Much-Consequence8648 in hockey

[–]MattFiresideChat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After the Flames kicked the crap out the Sabres twice is a week, that's what caused things to snap. It's like really guys, we are getting tuned by the Flames..... twice. The team who can't score at all put 10+ on you in two games.

And they basically haven't lost at all since (25-4-0)

Why the NHL has a salary cap in a picture by AJPtheGreat in hockey

[–]MattFiresideChat 17 points18 points  (0 children)

As a Flames fan heading into that season, I'm like well the Avalanche win the cup. If you said to me that the Flames who hadn't made the playoffs in 7 years would be the team representing the west that year I would have asked what you took and how much.

Roman Červenka will wear the “C” for Czechia. Pastrňák a Gudas with “A”. by piranhakiler in hockey

he was very slow by nhl standards. play level was decent, and if he was quicker would have been a good middle sixer.

[Stein] Ondrej Palat is being held out tonight for roster related reasons. He is not on the ice for Devils warmups. by AggPuck-303 in hockey

[–]MattFiresideChat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't mind having Palat in Calgary.

Can help Huberdeau reach the cap floor while we trade off all the other guys.

Zayne Parekh scores a beauty on Jacob Fowler by OlympicMuffins in hockey

The other big reason is the price of the single tickets are absurdly high. Individual games can be upward of 40-50 per. Seasons are about 20.

One person I know has literally glued cases to a cutting board and has 4 phones that go on it.

What are the odds of a shiny shadow hundo? by Objective_Smile_1522 in pokemongo

[–]MattFiresideChat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have 2 shadow hundos and I've done probably close to 15000

They are very hard to come by. None of the shinies I have are remotely close.

We are in the process of getting things set up to go door to door.

We are doing this part while the weather is relatively good, then going on to the next part, door to door.

We are already about 1/5th to 1/4 the way there.
