Dude I don't consider you an Oiler Fck. They know who they are... Haven't heard sh!t from them since about Saturday.

Don't get me wrong, the flames had a great season and work their asses off every game. totally deserve to be where they are. I'm also sure they will continue to slip into the playoffs occasionally but they are by no means a cup contender. Im sure flames fans are fine with that now as their rebuild is has only just begun but they still have a lot of work to do. All in all Id love for Edmonton to be in their situation right now

Aren't you and Iggy on a date? He must be mad with you talking to me.

Well I do like older women but Iggy only qualifies on the older part.

Interesting comments, and I think it's going to be an interesting off season based on the regular season throughout the NHL.....maybe more interesting depending on who gets bounced in the 1st round.

Too bad for all the cocksucking NMC's out there, it would be nice to be able to ring up a few teams that are going to make changes.
Even still, to take the long view, Mac T will have to make choices.

Goaltending: Do we go for an established vet like Anderson or Niemi to get us through a couple seasons or do we go a younger,yet unproven goalie for the long term? We're stuck with Scribbins for another season so unless we want a 3 goalie carousel we have to pick 1 or the other, IMO. Personally, I go with a younger tender like Jones or Lehner, seeing as how our prospect depth is weak, and we don't have a plan for 2 years from now outside of Brossoit.

Defense: in a perfect world, we could snag Chara for futures. It would probably cost us Marincin and Pitts 1st, but as a pure Mentor I think he is worth the cost. Imagine if Chara played with either Klef or Schultz? Or Nurse for a season? Sadly, I think the biggest name out there is Phaneuf, and he makes none of our young D better.

Center:Sign Roy and wait for LD to develop in the AHL. We desperately need a utility forward though, preferably a vet, in case we see injuries....any ideas?

Wingers: can we add another winger to replace Perron? Or at least someone that can play a middle 6 wing? Size, speed and grit would be best, maybe even a few goals. I like Joel Ward, Bergenheim, and a few other names.

wtf? I actually agree with something Jero said...

I like Nelson and hope you all keep him. Just read Eberle is a PPG player since he got hired, and Yakker is much better too! UFA/Bachmann, a top 4 Dman, and a full year in his system should show marked improvement. The West is stacked so I am thinking no playoffs next year, but after that you should be perennial visitors to the dance.

It's funny I don't hear much from the Oiler fcks who said up until about Feb the Flames won't sustain...

And I'm sure if we lose to the Nucks we'll hear once again how we just couldn't sustain.

To say Calgary, how they are built, will significantly regress is laughable. I could see them maybe pull an Avs and barely miss, but they won't be the Leafs tank nation. And IF they beat Vancouver, well, the sky is the limit. They are the first team to piss on the analytic war and win, and good for them.

Next year they will miss, but the year after? Klefbom, Nurse, improving Yak, hall/nug in their primes, Eberle being their Kane light. Add a UFA goalie, Brossoit will be ready by then to spot start....not as far away as ppl care to admit,

I say in 2 yrs we may have a nice 1st rd matchup, and Calgary could be the lower seed.

Sensationalist headlines are often wrong.

how are they the first?

Toronto was a piss poor possession team and made the playoffs. Analytics pundits said it wasn't going to last. It didn't.

Colorado was a piss poor possession team and made the playoffs. Analytics pundits said it wasn't going to last. It didn't. (though Varlamov was still very good)

Calgary is a piss poor possession team and made the playoffs. Analytics pundits say it won't last. _____________

Every year a team thinks they're the exception. I'd take the good experience of the playoffs as it is. A good experience.

Nurse will only be, probably at best, where Klefbom is now. Defence has to be beefed up big. Better support cast up front. 2 quality goalies.

I don't see them competing for a wildcard for 3 years. They just have not given me a sign for optimism.

(frank) dude I have only had 1 successful group project in school thus far. Been ditched 2 times and another I did the whole thing. Guy emailed me the night before asking what was going on for the presentation. Gee I dunno (frank) face. You just stand up there and look pretty since you have done nothing thus far.

I had one where it was me , some fob and this kid that belonged at a LoL tournament. The fob wrote at a kindergarten level and the kid never showed up for anything, even when I said just show up to write your damn name on the report. The deadline came and the kid didn't show so I went up to the prof and handed it in. When asked where the 3rd name was I told him I don't even know who the third person was. Needless to say the kid failed and had to retake Organizational Behavior.

Last group presentation I told off a group member due to him constantly correcting everyone and arguing with the Prof/audience.

Yeah group work pretty much just sucks altogether. Should be optional and a person can work alone like the cool detectives in movies.
