Amazing.

Just... amazing.

As a former Edmontonian, I may have to amend all my "Flames/Cup" jokes. (Gladly, if it means Stanley's mug comes back to Canada)

Go Flames!

maximusveritas

haha, it seems like all of Canada is on the Flames bandwagon now. That's cool though, the more the merrier.

Averett

And this American

Although I wouldn't say I'm a bandwagon jumper, I'm just enjoying the hockey being played. I'm not gonna go out and buy all Flames gear and claim to be the greatest Flames fan ever. It's been a blast to watch though

So long as hot girls keep flashing boobies on 17th Avenue, the band wagon can keep on growing. I'm actually a Sens fan in Calgary (but I keep that under my hat).

You gotta cheer and be happy for the Canadian teams, I mean they're Canadian teams, I love the Leafs always have always will but hell I'm all about the Flames winning the cup, it's not jumping on bandwagons it's called being Canadian

Yeah even though the Flames eliminated the Canucks (which still aches me), they put a big smile on my face when they knocked out Detroit in 6.

The Flames played a very awesome and powerful game tonight. Lets hope they can bring it and beat San Jose in 6.

Great game tonight!! Ville fighting off the hook around the neck then throwing out a pass for the assist was awsome! As was the whole team tonight.

Love it! I hope I can score some tickets somehow tomorrow. It's gonna go off here on Wed. night! They're still honking and cheering outside my apartment and I'm nowhere near downtown!!

Hopefully the Flames can break the home ice curse and finish the Sharks off in Game 6. I don't think I can stomach a Game 7.
Iginla and Kipper both looked great in Game 5 and that's a great sign. If they continue to produce, the Flames will be tough to beat.

matteo101

I think that no matter what Calgary will win the series. If they lose tonight, they will come back HELLA strong in SJ. And if they win tonight..well we all know.

sherpahigh

Haha!! Try face value.

Yesterday they released 2000 tickets for sale via ticketmaster online. I was away from the computer so I couldn't get any. But being a flames insider, I have a code for tickets that aren't used up for whatever reason and get released periodicaly before a game.

A random check at ticketmaster this morning netted me 2 tickets to the game tonight.

Fuck yeah!! Go Flames GO!!!!

2 tickets? Meaning one is available???

If I leave now I can make it for game time. Can i go? Please? Huh? Can I Can I CAN I???

I'll do whatever you'd like. You can have the rest of the little cheesecake I'm eating.

Sex? You want some sex? Well.. Okay, I'm not a prostitute, but I'd like to go to that game!

haha,

I'd take you Averett if I could. I had an agreement with a friend that was trying to get tickets as well. If either of us got them we'd give the other ticket to each other.

I'll have to tell my fiancee that I'm getting offers of sex for the ticket though. She'll like that. She's pissed cause she can't go. There's a shower for her tonight that's been planned for months.

Watch for me at the game tonight. I'll be the one in a red flames t-shirt.

Go Flames Go!!!

Woah, thats all I can say. I knew they would win the series, but its all setting in now. Like the Calgary Flames, are in the Stanley Cup Finals. Good stuff, make Canada proud!!!!!!!!!

Tempboy

The streaks are still alive... every time the Nucks and Flames have faced each other in the finals, the victor of the series has gone on to the Finals..

Gelinas has the series clinching goal..


Some other things... Calgary knocked off 3 divisional champions, including the Presidents Trophy winner.. all three teams we beat cracked the 100-point barrier in the regular season.

Iggy for the Conn Smythe!!!!!

metalgeek

hell, it's Gelinas' third SWG in these playoffs, he's scored the winning goal in all three series.
not sure if it'd be iggy or kipper for the smythe...

I'd be happy with either taking home the hardware

sherpahigh

WOW!!! What a night. The Dome was unreal last night!! SOooooooo loud, easily the loudest I've ever heard in there. Gelinas with the game winner again!! Just great all around. I've got to get some tickets to a game in the next round. The Stanley Cup Finals!! I can't even believe it. So Great.

17th after the game was just ridiculous. I've never been in a crowd that tight before. It was packed! I'm told that it's a lot like Mardi Gras but I've never been there to compare. I could only take so much then I pulled the shoot and swam for the sidelines. Much nicer on the outskirts of the crowd. No trouble there either which says a lot about our fans.

Go Flames Go!! Bring home the CUP!!! Wooooooooo!!!

I am not a big Flames fan but as and a Canadan living in Montreal a big hockey fan, the only logical case here is to support the Flames t'il the end. Small market, canadian city and former cup champ, there is a hockey history in there like everywhere in Canada (No, not in Tampa, sorry bolt fans).

I wished for a Flyers / Flames finale for the beauty of it and have a real meaning to the game. now that Calgary is in, I just hope the Flyers can rebound and clinch the next 2 game.

Go Flames, from a Habs fan. Bring the cup to the country it belong.

Averett

I was really glad to hear that Canadians are just so gosh darn nice

It's been a long time since a team I supported did as well as the Flames are. In fact, the last time a pro team I supported won any title was in '89 when the Flames won the Cup. And hey, 15 is my lucky number.

BTW, in case anyone's interested, i came across the following site:
American Evil - Calgary Girls Gone Wild
It's got a bunch of pics of Calgary girls celebrating on 17th.

Tempboy

I heart Calgary chicks

This american too

I love calgary chicks too... best ones out there if you ask me
