So Far A Fun Season For The Calgary Flames
from Wes Gilbertson of the Calgary Sun,
Just how good are these Calgary Flames? Could this squad do something special?
That’s what the entire city is talking about. It’s a hot topic on every barstool, around every board table and in every beer-league locker-room.
With every goal by Johnny Gaudreau, with every game-saving stop by Jacob Markstrom, with every two-point gain in the standings, the excitement is cranked up another notch.
“You can definitely feel the buzz around the city, even though I’m not out too much,” said Flames first-line centre Elias Lindholm, a guy who couldn’t fill a shopping cart these days without hearing several references to his case for the Selke Trophy. “It’s been a good season so far and obviously we’re in a good spot, but not happy.
“It’s definitely fun. We just have to keep pushing and put ourselves in a good spot, and then we’ll see after that.”
