Huge shoutout to the organization and the fans for coming out, representing the city and honouring Matthew and Johnny again. The celebration of his life and all the amazing things he did for the city and fans were definitely on display last night.
The team also showed up, played really well and just like that they start the season 2-0
Flames beat the Flyers 6-3 and Huberdeau had his first four point game as a Flame!
Who cares if this is sustainable, with all the noise coming into the season about rebuilding if the boys rattle off three wins in a row the vibes will be immaculate!
Next Game: October 13 @ Edmonton @ 6:00 PM MDT

Probably the most exciting first couple of games to start a season in recent Flames history.
Please beat Edmonton.
Wolfie with a solid full game, great to see too!
Had a terrible 2nd but held the lead., came back in the 3rd and played flames hockey. It sure is fun watching this team, now let’s go up the #2 and spank the Oil!!!
They need to win tonight’s game. Too many times in the last few years we get the Oilers when they’re slumping and they turn it around against us. For fucking once let’s embarrass them, show no mercy.
Watching this team with absolutely no expectations has been a joy so far. Yes we’ve won both games, but it’s the determination Huska’s got the group going with that’s been so great to watch. Might be a fun season after all.
Last night I came to appreciate that Lindholm didn’t accept the Flames contract offer. This team would not look like this if he was still here. Zadorov is always praised as a locker room guy but I don’t think he was very popular near the end either. The current guys seem to actually care for each other and I can’t stress enough how pumped I am for Lomberg coming back, dude has an eternal motor.
Idc if they lose more than win, just beat Edmonton and Vancouver. This team is fun again lfg
We have 9 players with more points than McDavid…
That was a beutiful game for the flames, now let’s stomp edmonton to the ground tonight.
Goals:
Huberdeau – 3
McDavid – 0
