Episode 351: Thank You Kipper

Posted on March 4, 2024

We’re still riding a high from the Miikka Kiprusoff jersey retirement game and a 2-0 week for the Calgary Flames which of course we discuss in detail. The guys give their thoughts as to who is the best Flames goalie of all time – Kiprusoff or Vernon. Then as they look ahead to NHL Trade Deadline, they discuss the Chris Tanev trade and what to expect in Artyom Grushnikov, Jacob Markstrom’s comments that “I think it could have been handled a lot different from up top.” and if we expect any other deals besides Noah Hanifin to be done before the deadline.

To wrap up the show we share our thoughts on Miikka Kiprusoff’s jersey retirement which happens this Saturday (March 2).

Episode 11: Welcome to the Rebuild

Posted on April 5, 2013

On this week’s episode the guys discuss the Flames big deals from the last week – Jarome Iginla and Jay Bouwmeester leaving town, and how the assets that are coming back help kickstart the “rebuild”. With Kipper being the only star player left in a Flames jersey, we talk about how his rumoured retirement next year would affect the team and that number 34 needs to be retired by the team, and not “honoured”.
