The Nashville Predators took an early 2-goal lead over the Calgary Flames tonight and, with how the Flames have been playing in the third period so far this season, it didn’t look too promising.  Some way, some how, the team pulled it together and, in the 5-3 victory, Calgary captain, Jarome Iginla was central since […]

Todd Bertuzzi Signs with the Calgary Flames!

Sweet geezus.  I’m sorry.  I try to keep my language somewhat neutral on this blog but that is the “safest” wording choice I can think of at the moment.  I really don’t know what to say about Todd Bertuzzi joining the Calgary Flames.  He’s been given a one-year, $1.95 million contract.
He’s a good player […]
