Some pics from the C-69 protest...MP Warkentin there, Jason Kenney, local MLAs... was a very good crowd, and was good to see that many are as angry and frustrated as I am...

These guys are making teams look silly. Best team I have seen in Calgary in a few decades.

Like the Blue Jackets game, spotting them 4-1? Or the Philly game, down 5-3 until the last 68 seconds of regulation? Or the Oilers game, down 2-0...(yeah, that was fun coming back for the win)? Yes, very exciting, but I really prefer a solid lead held through the whole game...two points is good. What a team this year!!
Except Neal. And Smith.

And wouldn’t it be crazy if Ovi got over 70 goals this year? The guy just gets his shots more dialed in each year!

A couple of fun stats:
-Flames are first in the West and second in the league;
-Flames are first in the Pacific by 5 pts with a game in hand on some of the teams below them;
-Flames are the second highest scoring team in the leauge and are sitting at +29 goal differential;
-Gio is tied for the top scoring defenceman in the league;
-Calgary has five players who are above a PPG;
-Steelers won.

I'm no Ovi fan, but I'd like to see him get 50 in 50.

Crazy to think when you lay stats like that out, and we are talking about the Flames. I still am not use to this. I just hope the Christmas break doesn't throw us off our stride. A bad week and could go from first, to dang near out of the playoffs with how tight it's getting.

But Lucic eats as many carbs at a sitting as the Mormon Tabernacle Choir apparently. So he still has skills.

I think Smith is tied with Neal for goals this year...well, not goals against, just goals for.
