I can't see the Oilers being 'better' with him gone... I can't cheer against the Flames, so won't take you up on the coke bets. Would be nice to see Ramo do well - not counting on it. The Flames finishing last overall might be the best thing for us... geez, you'd think that perpetual shame would only belong to Edmonton and Pittsburgh.<br /><br />Bladerunnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03611341464407248375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31094765.post-84614688324783171922013-07-13T21:00:58.180-07:002013-07-13T21:00:58.180-07:00I believe that makes Sam Morin the first official ...I believe that makes Sam Morin the first official SATFOD.

For empiricism's sake, let's say that for this bet to fall my way the Flames must be within 5 points of a playoff berth, and for the conditiont of 'league average goaltending' let's say Ramo/Bera have to have GAA's in the top 15. <br /><br />- If the Oilers re-sign Sam Gagner Calgary finishes ahead of them in the standings. Works as is. <br /><br />Deal? <br /><br />CameronCameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12784302405286800301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31094765.post-824784936219185232013-07-10T12:33:13.369-07:002013-07-10T12:33:13.369-07:00'Twas really awesome to touch base with so man...'Twas really awesome to touch base with so many of you this weekend.<br /><br />Some comments on Cam's comments:<br /><br />Calgary will regret passing on Hunter Shinkaruk just as Edmonton has come to regret passing on Shane Doan. Don't try and show up the hockey gods when they offer it up to you on a platter - it's rude and the hockey gods have long memories.<br /><br />Nashville, on the other hand politely said thank-you when the hockey gods offered up Seth Jones. Poile could not have imagined that he would have slid to #4.<br /><br />"- Here's a prediction, if Calgary can get league average goaltending from Kari Ramo and or Reto Bera (it could happen), the Flames will be on the edge of a playoff spot.<br /><br />- Prediction #2, if the Oilers re-sign and keep Sam Gagner, the Flames finish ahead of the Oilers in the standings. Book it."<br /><br />Cam, you have two coke bets right here. The Flames will finish no higher than 11th in the West and behind the Oilers.<br /><br />Boston will regret bailing on Seguin - though the "trade party" he threw may suggest he still has some maturing to do - Jim Nill knows him from his Plymouth days and is probably right. Also his buddies will have a harder time driving to party with him in Dallas - at least they hope that is the case.<br /><br />Still feel that Nichushkin was the Jagr of this year's draft - time will tell but I just have this feeling that Dallas stole him at #10.<br /><br />Agree that the Leafs are preaching to the echo chamber if they think Clarkson was the answer to what ails them. Edmonton may have dodged a very expensive bullet there. The key to a Clarkson is to get him before he becomes the powerforward star. IMHO, the true value of his player type is that it is such an unexpected bonus. When you pay full price (or more) that found value is lost.<br /><br />Agree that Murray's acquisition of Bobby Ryan was fantastic compensation for a bungled Alfredsson situation.<br /><br />When does hockey start up again, feeling withdrawl something bad...<br /><br />Douglas McLachlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03107690171549377847noreply@blogger.com
