go BABY FLAMES go !
i took my mum out on a field trip this afternoon to the saddledome to watch the flames rookie camp. i thought check out what all the hullabaloo was about re: andrei taratukhin. looks like he could be good. soft hands. but can he skate ?? tomi mäki's lookin' solid. and brandon prust's lookin pretty ready too. too bad the flames are so stacked that any of this trio making the big team is such a longshot...
woulda been a good shot if i'd bothered to move out of the way of that bar. this is the rookie B team, defense in yellow. that russian kid on the far left in black (#27). robin regehr's baby brother richie in defensive yellow #49. tomi maki red #57. oh and brett sutter (darryl's son, brent's nephew) is in there somewhere. as is micheal ryder's brother, dan. mmmhmmm...
goalies practising their stickwork.
anyways. there was a really great moment as the boys left the ice for a break. just after the zamboni came out to clean the ice and some guys started working on the boards, there was this really loud BANG sound (like a gunshot), and my mum turned to me, wide-eyed and smirking, and said, "do you think they're shooting the guys that don't make the team ?". i had a good chuckle, that turned to full-blown laughter as four more 'shots' rang out and my mum says, "they're not gonna have anyone LEFT !!"
go BABY FLAMES GO !!! HUSTLE !! MAKE THE BIG TEAM !!!

Hah, we should all be so unlucky.
On a happier note, only six more days till the preseason begins. Huzzah!
