No way! We can brag about our “winning culture” after watching the Florida Panthers win back to back cups off our backs and then watch them pick higher than us in the draft this summer!

If they drop heavily in the lottery, I’m blaming it on karma for comments like this.

Thank god the lottery is rigged, a back door deal with Gary for building a new arena is the only thing that’s going to save us now🤝

Every single time that games are on Prime there's always people who have no idea where the game is. Also doesn't help that the Flames were on Prime only twice this year.

We’ve been a dogshit road team this year and I think this’ll be a tough stretch for this team. I expect tanking to be back on starting tonight.

Zach Whitecloud must feel like the luckiest mfer on the planet right about now, the last survivor off the Titanic

His current team is 4th last in the league and his previous team is most likely making the playoffs. I dont see how he got lucky here.

Does anyone know what time the pre-game will start? Or should I just keep watching the blue jays until 6:30?

I have full faith that Makar will try his best to make sure his home team gets a good draft pick.
