Please.

hmm.. maybe if the flames didn't SUCK i would have tickets. or if i lived in calgary... but really, the flames? come on! boo urns! did you hear the front row tix are like 350$ a piece? that's so lame. silly old people.

:onfire:

:onfire: <--- new flames mascot

:mrgreen: :biggrin: :lol:
(just funnin ya)

Ha! Where were the Oilers in the payoff's? Oh, that's right, watching! Tell you the truth, all the teams suck this year... greedy.

Walter

LMAO an Oiler fan and you dis the Flames?

priceless :lol:

who has all the cups?? OHHHH YAH... EDMONTON... and who was it that LOST the stanley cup last year? OHHHH YAH, the flamers!! so that's what, 5 that we have, 1 that the flamers have???


BOO-YAH

All teams east of the rockies suck :biggrin: :snipersm:

I'm an oiler fan but you flames fans can thank Todd Bertuzzi for getiing past the first round. There is no way the flames beat the canucks with Bertuzzi in the lineup.

I still find it funny everytime I drive up to Edmonton and I see the City of Champions. How many years ago was that? Time to let the past go! I guess you can have that and the "mall", you have nothing else! :lol: :razz:

Walter

LMAO and what were detroit excuses? and san jose's excuses?

that is the lamest reasoning going. Pretty hard to take you serious anyhow, considering your team didn't even make the playoffs.

\
Smart man :idea:

Maybe, but thanks to Todd's stupid move, we will never know... And Vancouver fans can thank him.

Why can Vancouver fans thank him?

I'm a hockey fan. I sort of cheer for the Canucks but my heart lies with the Bruins (Paul Simon wrote Still Crazy After All These Years about me) so I don't think I'm biased when I say this; if Bertuzzi was in the line-up Vancouver would have won the series. Naslund needs Bertuzzi to open up the ice for him.

It was meant as sarcasim, That's my point, if he didn't pull a stupid move, he would have been there and they very well could have won that series.

Thanks Walter, I was a little slow on that one.

Edmonton isn't the city of champions just because of hockey. We win grey cups,baseball championships and I do believe a lot of our olympic and world champs are also from edmonton. Ya we didn't make the playoffs last year and no wonder calgary was hungry to win in the playoffs because they don't know when they will make it again(the last time was ummm what 6 years ago!)

so if bertuzzi is in Automatically they win? I have seen the canucks lose hundreds of times with bertuzzi in the line up.

i'm sorry, in my oppinion you so called "hockey fans" are just stupid. Your logic is borderline retarded :lol:

lmao your jealousy is hilarious. In one run, the Flames have made it farther then all the oilers playoff series' since '91. Your precious Oilers are just as hungry.

dude - not cool

Because Todd Bertuzzi would have magically cured Cloutier? Lmao

Well I based my opinion on a tightly played 7 game series that was decided in overtime. I figure that one of the premier players in the league would have made a difference in the series.

If you could maybe adjust your comments to opinions and not personal attacks I think the board would be better off.

Incidentally, I played hockey for 25 years and have been coached by a number of former NHLers. I have a fairly good grasp of the game and am not a rabid fan that would insult people over defending "my team".

Hmmmm, where to begin.
Capitolizing on another team's weekness is part of the game. Lets not forget about Steve Smith. :razz:

And it would have made a difference if our number 1\2 center wasn't injured as well. (Steven Reinprecht)


Playing for 25 years gives you the ability to see alternate reality, such as "what if". Even if he was in the line-up that is no gaurantee.

Answer this, what were the excuses for beating the other 2 Division leaders (Det and San jose)?

another point: If the Flames didnt have injuries to some of their biggest playoff scorers, and if Robyn Regehr wasnt playing with a broken ankle in game 7 of the final, maybe flames win the cup?

Hindsight is 20/20, and all your "what ifs" don't mean a thing.

Relax, take an opinion for what it's worth. I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking Bertuzzi's absence was a huge blow to the Canucks. Do you think if you yell and can call people names you'll change their opinions?

Do I think Calgary's run to the cup was a fluke? Yeah, partially. I thought they played hard, played a team game and I think luck was on their side. I enjoyed watching their run and after watching them out work Vancouver in game's 5 and 6 part of me was cheering for them. I cheered for them the rest of the playoffs too.

And no, my years of experience don't mean I see alternate realities. It means I don't believe my self to be an idiot or stupid when it comes to the game most of my life has revolved around. I do know I don't let my feelings for a team get in the way of analyzing a situation.

I could've also mentioned I spent close to a year covering (among other things) major junior hockey for a little rag in Moose Jaw...but I thought that would be over doing it a little :wink: .

you don't see why one might think that reasoning isn't very realistic?

I agree it hurt the Canucks to lose him, but it is not an excuse.

excuses are for losers!

i'm done!

You keep up the name calling and you will be done. Think about that youngster.

well said Troy. Oh by the way this is supposed to be a fun discussion and I wouldn't expect anything less from a flames fan :exclaim: Just funnin but seriuosly I don't think the oilers have lost in the stanley cup finals like calgary did. It's too bad this thread turned ugly and immature.

Just to steer this in a different direction ...

Somebody please just give Tarolisol some Stones tickets.

(There Sean I tried for ya.. :razz: )

"Rolling stones" I cant believe they are still alive :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

... gathers no moss.

Yes someone give me some tickets. Free frags to whoever gets me some tickets :) Thanks for trying to steer this back in the right direction i pretty much stopped reading the posts.

Any on E-bay? Wonder what scalpers are selling them for? :eek:

Guess I just had to look!

Yeah i looked on ebay, what a joke, most of those seats are HORRIBLE anyways and some poor unknowning fool is going to be dissapointed when he pays 500 dollars to sit in the rafters.

I stated my oppinion, and i'm standing by it.

good for you buddy.

Edmonton was looking at changing the city motto/slogan a few years back as I recall... they wanted to change it to something associated with education and research...
