Make sure some one posts the latest news please ?

Hank is still in the game so to me that is very good news. I think if it were a serious spinal injury he would be with Dank.

Jason Botchford ‏@botchford 1m
Doctor said they're not overly concerned right now. Neck was "in shock"

So early reports are a stinger.

Murph just said Dank is moving all his extremities. So no official report but indications are good.

Bountiful is out of control on this. Wasn't it McGratton that stiffed armed Alberts ending his season?

But tonight they are out of control over the Sedin hit.

Whew. Good to hear Dank is moving his extremities.

On a more positive note... Edler wins the minus title outright with a league-leading -39 in only 63 games.

Daniel released from GVH.

I'm glad we beat em bad, next game in October might be a doozy.

Glad to hear Danny is okay, just a stinger?

Dirty hit from behind, but it didn't seem hard enough to inflict too much damage.

Glad Hartley wasn't able to get Torts to snap (again, this has been going on for decades).



32:40 mark, Torts' post-game presser.

Apparently Hartley was mocking Daniel's injury the whole time he laid on the ice.

Torts was starting to lose it in the presser just talking about Sideshow Bob's tactics.

Torts is no angel, but surely Sideshow Bob is a psychopath.

Poor Torts. Man he hates that guy. Let's see some tv footage of him acting like an ass behind the Calgary bench. One thing for sure, we can't have Tirts as coach against Calgary anymore!

A few comments;

Hartley was fined for his opening lineup before, seems he's throwing a middle finger back at the league. I'm guessing the Flames receive a phone call from the league to discuss it.

Torts comments post game sound more like players on the Flames bench making comments with the coach doing nothing to restrict them.

Tortorella is correct, bush league stuff. Bob needs to elevate himself from level of kids in a sandbox. I give my four year old shit for that kind of BS.

If Byron does not make contact he should lose his spot in the lineup, however the stick in the air indicating he has no intention of playing the puck and extending his arms through the hit was uncalled for. Correct call on the ice.

Head brace and back board are standard for any head/neck/back complaint. Immobilize the head/spine is standard first aid. best to error on the side of caution.

The way Dan and Hank were playing reminded me of the days of Dion patrolling the Flames blueline.

Frankie reminds me of a young KB3, not sure how they got the Tanev link. Still raw, but showing signs of something there.

I have enjoyed the recent youth movement. Bells and whistles, belches and farts ....... all good.

On a trip to Ireland a few years ago, I was chastised by our guide for stopping at a pub as she was in a hurry to get to our destination for the night (a very cool place, she had good reason), but we made our way into the pub and ordered our Guinness and then she ordered her double black Bushmills. Our last night in Dublin we headed out on a pub crawl and our first stop there was and overly frumpy and downright miserable lass doing promo for Tullamore Dew.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.
