Flames Game Night

This is David Moss. He returns from injury tonight, and he's going to save the Flames' season.

His health, and Bourque's health come March 1, and the addition of the new forwards will -- in the absence of some really rotten luck -- give them a good shot versus a tougher sked over the final 20 games, and propel them into the playoffs on a nice roll.

And by all rights, it should start tonight, with a good thumping of the Ducks. Say 4-1? Sure. Go Flames.

Flames Game (Brand New) Day

I'd like to be excited about tonight's game -- first game of the rest of the season and all, see if Stajan and White are any good (not too worried about Hagman), etc.

But this Kotalik thing is hanging like a dark cloud. In a rather stunning development, the MSM, bloggers, and commenters seem to be unanimous that acquiring Ales Kotalik makes no goddamn sense whatsoever.

The only thing close to a defense of Sutter I've seen was Puck Daddy Hisself last night: a 1998-era "Since Olli's leaving you might as well get something for him" argument that I couldn't disagree with more. I dislike Jokinen a LOT -- I often recall an old Cosh 'joke' about once being ready to shoot Igor Ulanov and bill Igor's parents for the ammunition -- but there's no way that Kotalik + Higgins is a big upgrade over Jokinen + Prust for the remainder of this season.

And as for the two seasons after this one, well,

[$5.5M cap space] >>>[ $2.5M cap space] + [Healthy Scratch on one of the few teams that has as much trouble scoring as Calgary]

So anyway, uh, Go Flames!
