i'm thinking that the flames are lock for the playoffs now. they have secondary scoring, and ian white is underrated and quite decent defensively. jbo SHOULD step up for phaneufs loss.

Well that's hard to say. The "big" Jokinen pick up last year during the trade deadline didn't do much for them, in fact they lost the NW title so on paper it looks good but who knows how the players will interact on the ice. My feeling is there's a couple more players that need to be moved from Calgary for the team to get back on track.

i know hagman and jokinen had some chemistry for finland, maybe sutter is trying to recreate that. either way, they have some secondary albeit streaky scoring now, could help them win some games.

Yup, there were no local games allowed on TV and it's the same ownership but the son stepped in after his father death.

Look at the Avs. They had a record of over 500 straight sell outs for their home games, till they started to suck.
Right now, the Hawks are actually making money, and so is the Pens, which is a big part of why they can afford to purchase the Pirates.

^Where did Jason Blake go? I thought the T.O trade was;
To Calgary:
-Matt Stajan
-Niklas Hagman
-Jamal Mayers
-Ian White
To Toronto:
-Dion Phaneuf
-Fredrik Sjostrom
-Keith Aulie
EDIT
To Anaheim:
-Vesa Toskala
-Jason Blake
To Toronto:
-J.S Giguere

So wat are we argueing about here? How good of a player Phaneuf is? or how shitty the Leafs players in this trade r? | how is ian white underrated? He plays in the center of the hockey universe, if he was any good they would have made him mayor by now.
This is a city that will no doubt anoint Phaneuf as the 2nd coming of Christ within the next week

just read something interesting regarding jokinen:
Home - 27 gp, 3 g, 6 a, 9 pts, -6, 20 pim, 69 sog, 4.3 spct
Away - 25 gp, 7 g, 16 a, 23 pts, +6, 31 pim, 80 sog, 8.8 spct
seems like he hated playing in calgary

The Blues have been playing pretty good of late and are crawling up the standings and same go for the Wild so as of now the Flames really aren't in good shape because they're barely holding onto 8th spot and they've pissed away valuable points during their losing streak.
