        • Montreal's got a big stadium.

          The Flames are looking to build a new stadium. I guess they figured now is a good time to talk about it, with the billions in Alberta surplus and craze over the Flames...

            • The Saddledome's capacity is apparently 20100 or so, so you still have 800 empty seats every game...

              • Every game has been sold out all season, KH.

                The capacity for hockey is less than the Saddledome's concert capacity.

                Every night it's 19,289 people.

                  • When it opened it had capacity for 21,140 people for hockey.

                    Recent renovations have added more luxury boxes and suites, so the # is down.

                    • No room for improvement in Vancouver - every game is a sell out. That figure is actually quite a bit over the 'official' sell out number of 18,422, although they have had announced attendance figures over 19,000 in the past. I guess it depends on how many people you cram into the boxes?

                        I wonder if that will change next year.

                              I would love to face the Sharks, as would most Flames players.

                              They were a joke last year, this year is no different. Toskala and Nabokov are swiss cheese.

                              The teams in the west people are worried about are Dallas, Detroit, and Calgary now. Everyone else is going to make an early exit.

                              And if Thorton wins MVP over Kipper, something is completely f*cked up for the league. I don't even see it as a contest -- if you remove Kipper from Calgary it's pretty much a last place team. That's the definition of MVP.

                              • Last time Calgary and San Jose played, Cheechoo and Thorton were so great that San Jose got shut out.

                                Calgary won the season series with San Jose this year (the only loss was in October when the team wasn't gelling and sucked, and it was a close 3-2 game that was decided in a shootout which doesn't matter for the playoffs)
