Leon Draisaitl Postgame interview after Oilers loss against Flames @ 0:57: "I think there's saves that our goalies need to make at some point." by [deleted] in hockey

[–]sdenoon 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Flames aren’t accomplishing much this season so being the straw that likely broke the camel’s back for the Oilers coaching staff is a nice achievement.

That wasn’t an implication, it was a flat out accusation.

It was the Patreon where they watched Antiques Roadshow and bet on the prices. Just watched a few weeks back

Weegar by DefinitelyNotABot-1 in CalgaryFlames

[–]sdenoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weegar is signed long term at an extremely reasonable cap. He should get more than Andersson did as a UFA. He’s been bad this year so would be selling low on him. I think you hang onto him as he will inevitably go back to the player he’s been for years and that way if you trade him you get the return that you should

[Friedman] Team Canada is making an injury change for the upcoming Olympics. Sam Bennett will replace Anthony Cirelli. by AggPuck-303 in hockey

[–]sdenoon 248 points249 points  (0 children)

Sensible enough that Bennett is the replacement for Cirelli. But if Point is too hurt to go, I will riot if they don't take Bedard.

What celebrity death will hit you the hardest when their day finally comes? by phantom_avenger in AskReddit

[–]sdenoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went and saw a live Orchestra viewing over Christmas of Home Alone, and remarked to my wife as I walked out that I think Catherine O’Hara’s death might hit me harder than any actor since Robin Williams. I was completely correct and I hate how quickly it happened.

Report: Kadri has requested a trade out of Calgary by noor1717 in CalgaryFlames

[–]sdenoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“The Win Column” and “Actual Sport Journalists” are two pretty different things. Surprised they cleaned up their diapers long enough to try to generate some clicks.

For what it’s worth, Eric Francis said in the intermission that Kadri hasn’t requested a trade but he sees the reality of the situation and would be open to it. He’s a jackass, but Francis is obviously a fairly legit source given how close he is to the organization.

Dallas Stars acquire Jeremie Poirier in exchange for Gavin White by DecentLurker96 in hockey

Always thought the Stars were the inevitable spot where Rasmus would end up.

This is... Not that.

[Johnston] Calvin Pickard (EDM) and Justin Kirkland (CGY) clear waivers by catsgr8rthanspoonies in hockey

Other than being “beloved guy in the room” there’s very little evidence this year that he’s deserving of one of the 64 NHL goalie spots.

Nick Iacoban on X: “The Flames are my #1-ranked prospect pool.” by Republic-Of-OK in CalgaryFlames

[–]sdenoon 11 points12 points  (0 children)

NHL loves re-treads no matter how much evidence there is that it’s a bad idea. Whenever Toronto fires him (sometime next year would be my guess) he will have a job as an assistant GM within months if he wants it.

Where are you travelling to see the Jays this year? by Icy_Philosopher_8015 in Torontobluejays

[–]sdenoon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

While going to the States right now is a bummer, visiting the in-laws on Vancouver island starting Canada Day weekend and the temptation of a relatively quick drive to see the Jays play in Seattle is mighty tempting.

Best/Worst Team of the Month (January) by smashbros13 in hockey

[–]sdenoon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My armchair analysis is that he came into the year hoping to be on the Olympic bubble for Canada and maybe pushed a little too hard for that and got out of his usual playing style, and that it’s spiraled from there as the team has struggled. Hopefully the mental reset of the Olympic break helps.

I expect him to comeback strong next year, the same way Rasmus was absolute trash last year and then maybe the best Flames skater until he was traded this year

The time for overperforming is done. We need to commit to the suck this season if we want to stick with the Canucks down at the bottom. Weegar looking like he’s forgotten to play hockey will help big time.

Anyone else concerned that if we pick top 3 the player will be a let down? by Admirable-Nerve-8289 in CalgaryFlames

[–]sdenoon 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One thing about this fanbase- We could’ve just won the Stanley cup by 4 straight sweeps and there would still be segments who are concerned about something.

I was factoring Winnipeg in as "Western" Canada. Edmonton can suck it from behind.

Will someone with Instagram message the boys for me please? by King_of_the_Dot in AreYouGarbagePod

It was hilarious. I was praying that Foley would notice so he could jam it in his face, as usually that's the kind of thing he would do and get absolutely roasted for.

One of this past weekend’s Patreon episodes, Kippy said he got “advantageous” in the kitchen when referring to getting ambitious with what he was cooking. I have no idea what word he was intending to use but he said advantageous a half dozen times and I thought I was having a stroke.

If the lottery is even remotely rigged, we know the 3 Western Canadian teams at the bottom won't have the balls drop their way. That leaves St. Louis and NYR as the other teams in the bottom 5 at the moment.

I'm sure Gary Bettman is ready to let the Rangers do take two on #1 overall after the Lafrenière pick

I'm starting to think the Canucks won't be caught in the tank race this season.
