FINAL
4 - 1

In pre-seson action it was the Abbostford Flames vs. The Edmonton Oilers.

Tuesday night comprised of guys battling for the sixth and seventh defenceman spots. Among that group, new Flames head coach Brent Sutter thought Anton Stralman stood out the most.

Not a bad game considering the Oilers line up they were facing tonight.

Jokinen, Iginla, Phaneuf, Regehr, Bouwmeester, Sarich, Girodano, Langkow, Conroy; the Flames best players. Were they playing? No. Excuses? On your part, sure. :cheeky4:

I'd rplace Gio with these Mikael Backlund, Olli Jokinen, Miikka Kiprusoff
hell I'd even put Theo ahead of him.

Badat can blow it out his ass if he thinks it's an excuse. Put these guys in the lineup and the Oilers would have never stood a chance.

Great time for Theo, what Flames fan doesn't wan't him in the lineup sometime this season?

"It was pretty unanimous on the bench," said head coach Brent Sutter. "the players al wanted him to shoot. It was the right thing to do. It's a day-to-day process (with Fleury). I thought he played okay."

Season Series -- It's the first game for both teams, who were 2-2-2 in 2008-09. The final preseason game between the teams on Sept. 26 might provide a good idea of what to expect. Goalies Miikka Kiprusoff and Roberto Luongo both looked like they were ready to go, stopping 35 and 24 shots respectively, and Alberta native Mason Raymond's sleek shootout goal against Kiprusoff wowed the Calgary crowd and gave the Canucks a win.

Hell yeah, it is time!!!!

I liked the play of Jay Bouwmeester and Eric Nystrom and it looks like Kipper is already in finer form then the start of last season.

The Flames came out way to hard in the first and I think it tired them out, still seems like the Flames of old in that aspect.

Game #3 of the season tonight and in the first 2 games the Flames have looked very good and very bad back and forth. Just like the last few seasons the Flames have had another very inconsistent start, the difference from the other years has been Kipper who has arguably stole both of the 1st 2 games maybe they should have him always play the preseason with the big pads then switch back at the start of the season. After all it was the start of 05-06 when all the goalies in the league (including kipper) had to adopt the smaller pads due to rule changes. Of course that season was remembered as Kippers best season in which he won the Vesina and the Jennings. Coincidence?

I am liking the new Brent Sutter system when they are playing it right, I'm assuming the next big thing to improve is their play in the 3rd periods. The last 2 3rd periods most of the time they were caught defending leads in their own end, optimally they'd be killing that time in the opposing end with a steady cycle. Up until now only the lower lines have had any sucess with this.

Even though Sarich is out the 5 permanent starters that remain are looking solid in both directions, although it appears Regehr has returned from jumping into the plays and creating offence back to the defencive defenceman we know. Hard to really complain about anything there. It's really amazing how Bouwmeester and Phaneuf play a very similar game but with little differences. For example I've noticed Phaneuf is starting to play a very good positional game were as Bouwmeester covers a lot more ice and catches players off guard with his speed. It'll be very interesting to watch the big 3 play out the season, as it looks now Bouwmeester is logging the most ice time, but I have a feeling Sutter's trying to keep the defencive minutes as balanced as possible.

Anyways that's my rant on the 1st 2 games.

Im guessing that unless Kipper has another good showing the Flames lose this one. The Habs have been better defensively and their top line is playing well unlike ours. I think it's time to split Iggy and Oil if they go pointless again tonight.

Nice, I didn't think the Flames would have gotten this good of a start to the season.

3-0-0

I remember when the Sens had an amazing start to. That wasn't what we'd call a dream season when all was said and done. I won't be assuredly praising this start until half way through the season when we can judge if it was luck or if this is a genuinely good team.

The Flames still have much to learn yet this season, I just hope they get better with every game because as it stands right now I'm not as happy with them as you might think.
