Sharks Weak

There was a time, I think, when the San Jose Sharks were able to win games at home. And they definitely didn't have any trouble winning home games against the Flames, racking up a gaudy 8-1-0 mark the last nine times Calgary visited the Tank. But those days have apparently gone the way of Hillary's presidential hopes, as the red hot (red hot, red haaaahhhhhhtt) Flames picked up the 3-2 OT win, dropping Thornton & Co. to 6-9-4 at home. I was going to give a brief recap of the scoring and goaltending, but it's late, and this is pretty much all you need to know anyway...



Two more goals, including the game winner, to make it 31 on the year. Mazel Tov, Iggy. And hey, I wear size 14 shoes too; we should go shoe shopping when the Flames come to DC in March. You know, as friends, nothing weird.

Red Hot!!!

This video comes courtesy of Chicago's very own David Banks. This should answer any questions as to how a young, impressionable upstate New York boy became a fan of southern Alberta's finest pro hockey club. I'm pretty sure this is where Spoon got the idea for the horn section on Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga.
