Trevor Neufeld: Flames Games Postponed This Week Due to Six Players in Covid Protocol

before the "its not fair, my team played with blah blah blah out" posts lets set the record straight

They were not able to fly to Chicago to start their road trip

2 weeks to flatten the curve they said...

It makes you wonder if a lot of the players aren't fully vaccinated and went the Evander Kane route and forged documents. Covid lockdowns with the Islanders, Senators, Canucks and Flames. It just doesn't add up imo.

You can still get it if vaxxed idiot. Just makes it much less severe.

No one forged anything. (frank)ing moron.

Fact 1: Every politician will give the most expedient reassurance that's believable by the most people at the time.
Fact 2: There are very few people alive (actually zero) who've had experience with a pandemic who could give us the benefit of their expertise. (And if they were available, they'd probably be ignored anyway.)
Fact 3: A pandemic is a war in every sense of the word - except the bullets are invisible and every country is under attack simultaneously.

Takeaway: If there's ever an invasion by aliens where the entire world is under attack hopefully we'd be able to cooperate and deal with it more successfully than we're dealing with COVID.
Just sayin'.

Do you realize you can say that without swearing and cussing? or is this part of a greater behavioural pattern you have that got you traction in life at the truck stop on peigan trail?

anyway

covid edition line combos:

Gaudreau - Coleman - Tkachuk
Pelletier - Backlund - Dube
Lucic - Monahan - Gawdin
Duehr - Kirkland - Lewis

Kylington - Andersson
Hanifin - Stone
Valimaki - Gudbranson

I wouldn't mind seeing Dube at 1C, but I'd rather see what Coleman can do without offensive duds like Backlund. I'd at least give Dube some shifts at 1C or vice-versa for Coleman.

I'm going with Pelletier on the wing, this team has a long track record of starting young centers on the wing.. (except Ruzicka) and with his talent and a thin line up, there's no reason to start him on the 4th line as Ruzicka was.

Monny's still broken, so I'm keeping him at 3C and hope Gawdin gives the line some energy.

Defense - I think you split up the young players and put them with someone stable. Kylington has proven effective with a defensive partner, Hanifin and Stone are stable, Valimaki and Gudbranson can make it work, both are competent. Mackey could knock out Stone or just given an opportunity, really he could get swapped out with Valimaki too

Wow!

I won't call you an idiot but you might want to research how a vaccine works and what it does

It seems in these cases the vaccine is working as intended...positive for covid but basically no symptoms

as Dave Chepelle put it "the Magic Johnson of covid"

Help is available if you want it.

If I was responding to anyone else I wouldn’t have been as harsh. That guy is just an idiot with every post he makes though.

No need to be crabby!

Btw I saw a Turd Ferguson related name on reddit a few weeks ago. It was in a thread about Marilyn Manson and Louis CK both getting Grammy nominations. Was that you?

Turd I think you might need to see a shrink for your anger issues. I know that you can get COVID after being vaccinated, but the odds of 6 players and a staff member put in COVID protocol is odd.

Lol no. Marilyn Manson sux donkey balls.

Anyone watch Yellowstone?

They were talking about rodeos and the kid asked Lloyd where the best rodeo in the world is. He says “ best rodeo in the world is in Canada. The Calgary Stampede. I’ll never go back because there’s too many nice people” (paraphrased) lol.

Lol no. Marilyn Manson sux donkey balls.
- TurdFergeson

Agreed. Just garbage at this this point. I was just there reading people arguing about whether Louis CK should be compared to him. It was a bloodbath.

Lol no. Marilyn Manson sux donkey balls.

It’s kinda for times like this that I wish Fight Club was a real thing.

Iggy and FF could actually work out their differences in a civilized manner.


Well, who thinks Tre needs to pull off a major trade to make this season epic?

Probably putting something out in the next few days along those lines.

Every time I watch the Panthers play I miss Ryan Lomberg. Imagine the Flames getting to the Finals and Lomberg, Bennett are suiting up against them?

Just look at this big hit from yesterday.

well this explains the slump

So you have absolutely no concept of what a virus is? There’s nothing odd about it. Viruses can pass from person to person. All a vaccine does is gets your body ready to fight it off.

They’re also constantly tested so every case is going to pop up. It also doesn’t even mean that all six are positive for COVID or even that any of them are. They could’ve went out for dinner together and their server later tested positive. They’re being safe.

Updated the blog. Jon Gillies played his first NHL game last night!

Of the season ? He made it into quite a few games for the Flames.

Forgot to include “of the season”. Haha

I know what a virus is, when 7 people test positive questions have to be answered, end of story. Have a nice day!

So you don't understand what a virus is if you have questions that have to be answered.

I'll help you out and answer them for you. If someone has the virus and they're in close proximity to someone else, the virus can pass between them. It's pretty straightforward. A vaccine has never made anyone immune to anything. If all seven of them end up in the ICU, then you can ask your questions.

We also have no idea how many of the seven, if any of them, have tested positive. My son is in COVID protocol and has tested negative.
