Afternoon Delight

Afternoon Delight: Dynamo Time

  • Building the “right” Team Canada. Expect a deluge of these columns going forward. That being said, it is fun to speculate.
  • The Calgary Flames will be moving their AHL affiliate to Abbotsford, BC. I always thought Vancouver would snap this market up.
  • ESPN’s Scott Burnside is calling for the Sharks to be blown up. I would expect some big trades to happen, since they canned the coach last summer.
  • Jim Kelley: Flames have too many fatal flaws. #1- They are the Flames.
  • Coming Down the Pipe has a breakdown of the potential Top 5 WHL Bantam Draft picks, with news and notes on a few others as well. I can’t believe ’94’s are being drafted. In 1994 high school girls were still acceptable dates for me.
  • Oiler blogger Jonathan Willis eulogizes the Flames over at Puck Daddy.
  • Will labour unrest be the force driving teams back to Canada? Despite the player’ seeming preference to live in the US, they could make more money with teams in Canada.
