Does Wideman Have Any Trade Value?
If you spend any time at all with a fan of the Calgary Flames during one of their games, two things will inevitably happen. First, that person will at some point loudly complain about Dennis Wideman. Second, that person will openly ponder why the Flames haven't traded Wideman yet. Wideman Has a...

Dan Boyle Retires as Last Member of Lightning's 2004 Stanley Cup Team
When Dan Boyle announced his retirement on Wednesday, he became the last remaining member of the Tampa Bay Lightning's 2004 Stanley Cup team to call it an NHL career. The only other remaining players from that team, forwards Vincent Lecavalier and Brad Richards, each ended their respective...

Kiprusoff mówi dość
Mówiło się o tym od dawna, od kilku godzin wiemy oficjalnie - jeden z najlepszych bramkarzy w historii fińskiego hokeja na lodzie, Miikka Kiprusoff, zakończył karierę zawodową. Zawodnik ten ostatnie 9 lat spędził w Calgary, stając się obok Jarome'a Iginli ikoną Flames z początków XXI wieku.
Do ligi NHL wybrany został w Drafcie 1995 z numerem 116 (5 runda) przez San Jose Sharks. Na swój debiut w Najlepszej Hokejowej Lidze na świecie czekał aż pięć sezonów. Gdy Sharks w końcu zdecydowali się postawić na Kiprusoffa, on odwdzięczył się bardzo dobrą postawą - w 5 meczach pokazał się z bardzo dobrej strony puszczając średnio mniej niż 2 gole w meczu.
Kolejne dwa sezony w Sharks to rola jedynie zmiennika dla Jewgienija Nabokowa - czyli nie do końca satysfakcjonująca dla utalentowanego Fina. Sytuacja zmieniła się przed sezonem 2003/04. Kiprusoff opuścił słoneczne San Jose i wyruszył na zachód Kanady, podpisując umowę z Calgary Flames. Pierwszy sezon w drużynie z prowincji Alberta pokazał, co tak naprawdę potrafi Miikka. Szturmem zdobył pozycję bramkarza nr 1 w drużynie, a sezon zakończył z najlepszym odsetkiem bronionych strzałów w lidze (niewiarygodne 93,3%!). Jego rewelacyjna postawa pomogła Flames (w ich barwach grał wtedy Krzysztof Oliwa, ostatnio znany jako Krzysztof O.) dojść aż do finału rozgrywek o Puchar Stanleya, gdzie po niezwykle emocjonującej rywalizacji ulegli Tampa Bay Lightning w serii best-of-seven 3-4.
Rozpędzonego Fina zatrzymał ..."lockout", anulujący rozgrywki NHL na cały sezon 2004/05. Kiprusoff udał się do Szwecji i tam reprezentował barwy Timra w najwyższej klasie rozgrywkowej. Ten krótki powrót na poziom hokeja europejskiego nie zaszkodził mu jednak wcale, albowiem po powrocie do NHL grał nadal na niebotycznym wręcz poziomie. W sezonie 2005/06 uznany został za najlepszego bramkarza w lidze zdobywając Vezina Trophy. Przed rozpoczęciem kampanii 2007/2008 podpisał "kontrakt życia" przedłużając swoją umowę z Calgary Flames o kolejnych 6 sezonów, w trakcie których zarobił 35 milionów dolarów. Lata po podpisaniu kontraktu nie różniły się od poprzednich - Kiprusoff nadal bronił wyśmienicie, będąc ostoją Flames. Oprócz niezwykłych umiejętności cechowała go również wyjątkowa wytrzymałość i odporność na kontuzje. Mikka przez siedem kolejnych lat rozgrywał minimum 70 spotkań w trakcie sezonu zasadniczego. Prawdziwy "iron man".
W trakcie dziewięciu sezonów spędzonych w barwach Flames ustanowił cały szereg rekordów - wśród których na największą uwagę zasługują ten dotyczący zwycięstw (305) i shutoutów (41). Jego występy dla Flames pięknie podsumował ich generalny menadżer (jeszcze...) - Jay Feaster:
"Miikka Kiprusoff has been the backbone of the Calgary Flames since his arrival here in 2003, and every night for more than 70-nights per season, his magnificence between the pipes gave the team a chance to win. He inspired hope and confidence, and he made those around him better players as a result of his brilliance (...) Miikka will take his place in the pantheon of great NHL goaltenders, and his place in Flames’ history is secure. He will be missed by players, teammates and fans, and we wish him all the best in his retirement."
Popularny "Kipper" swoją grą zasłużył na wprowadzenie do Hall of Fame i mam nadzieje, że doczekamy tego momentu. Na koniec przyjrzyjmy się najciekawszym momentom z jego kariery w NHL.

Rejoice Calgary Flames fans, I have returned to give you guys cookies. Also, your GM has finally been fired.
Who do you think will replace Jay Feaster?
I have no idea... I was totally 100% shocked by the firing, tbh. I mean, I wasn't expecting them to sign Feaster onto another contract, but I wasn't expecting it to be THAT fast...
He has defnintely made some mistakes as our GM the past few years, I won't deny that, but he wasn't left with a whole lot of Gold after Sutter left us in shambles (loved Darryl as a coach, wasn't a fan of a coaching Sutter)
and now looking back at this response, I realize I said/answered everything BUT what you asked.... haha so all in all, I have no idea....
All I can say is that I really hope Burke isn't our "GM" for long because it has been less than 12 hours and I am already pulling my hair out....
A bit of a bummer that Flames GM Jay Feaster got fired today. I thought he was super articulate and charming, though lately he seemed to be less warm and more irritable than usual. reporter: Brian, you have some smaller, finesse players in the system. You talked about going black and blue. What do those players...
Brian Burke: There's plenty of room for small players in our game. All these teams that are competitive have small players. What I'm saying is you need some 'beef' around them. I sent a text this morning to the coach of Boston College. Said, make sure your guys know we still love them. There's a couple players there that we drafted; one of them is quite small — the Gaudreau kid — but he's quite gifted as well. There's room for the small player in our game but you better surround them with some 'beef.' You know the bottom 6 forwards are easier to fill out — the black and blue part of your team — that's easier to fill out than the skilled part of your team. So there's plenty of room for small, skilled guys. Everyone says you have a big team, you have this, you have that — I've had some pretty good players play for me too. And pretty highly skilled players that I place great value on like Bure, Naslund, Sedin; I had Teemu Selanne. I have lots of room for skilled guys. It's easier to fill out the roster with the bangers than it is with the skilled guys. Cute/encouraging to hear. But I tend to think of myself as more of a small bottom 6 grinder than a top 6 skilled player; perhaps someone that can go either way or be fusion-y depending on my supposedly fragile confidence/if I'm on my A-game. I think it's helped that I've been running lately and building up my stamina for extra feisty-ness. Hopefully the random team I'll be joining will be a good group of guys (aka not bros in the worst sense), and people I'd be motivated to play for.
