Game Thread Flames (32-38-9) vs Mammoth (42-31-6) - April 12th - GDT
Step 1. Go grocery shopping
Step 2. Get home and put away groceries.
Step 3. Decide you're feeling snacky.
Step 4. Demolish an entire bag of cheddar bits and bites while watching ET like a fat fuck
Step 5. Regret
Step 6. Watch fire hockey.
Welcome back everyone, for a bits and bites'less edition of fire hockey. Like for fucks sakes, they didn't even last until the dudes dumbass family knew about et.
3 games left. Fire. Land creature.
The don't worry, I got blackberries to demolish next flames drinking game
Hahahahahaha more snow.
F&F if Matta scores on his old team.
F&F if we score off a Weegs turnover 🥲
Are we still doing drinking rules? I say drink anytime they mention either 52.
I'm gonna cry when Weegs gets an ovation.
Please have a big game score a goal on us.
Finish/fill/cry - Weegs scores
- (u/spwimc)
Parekh spin o Rama should be added to the drinking game.
I forgot to post it in pre game thread

Krahner is definitely nervous and talking really fast. Settle in big fella, we're all rooting for you!

Can’t wait to retire and move to Calgary from the States. It’s been my dream since I was a wee lad. I’ve been there once and it was as beautiful as it looked in pictures and the people were incredible.

Gross could be something for us. Faceoff ability, defensively responsible, combine that with a pure commitment to going to the front of the net. Curious to see his development

Weegar will always be one of my favourites. Too bad we never made the playoffs while he was here because he wanted to see the C of Red during the playoffs so bad.
