PR - Flames

After many seasons of trying, the Atlanta Flames finally win the coveted TFHL cup! The Flames sailed through the playoffs with an amazing 16-2 record. It could have been 16-1 but they forgot to dress Jeff Carter against the pitiful Wheat Kings. When you look at the playoffs this year, the Flames really didn’t have any competition. Besides a few 1 goal games, they blew most of their competition away in many of the games, scoring 5-7 goals a game. When you look at the Flames roster everyone was clicking. A handful of players could be named for Conn Smyth, whether you want to choose Brust with a near 2 goal a game average, their defenseman Grebeshkov with over a point per game and led the playoffs in hits per game or Vas would led in points per game, penalty minutes and was just plain dominant with 7 fighting majors, where he won most of them. You can even include Ryznar who was a goal sniping maniac. Flames GM, had the following to say after this win today.

“The Atlanta Flames would like to congratulate the Owls for a somewhat hard fought series (not…). The Flames would like to thank their fans for sticking with them, as it’s been a long time coming. Our team played amazing BUT (hush goes over the crowd…is he retiring???) we really didn’t face any strong competition. The best part was the media (I believe) constantly picking the Flames to lose each series OR other teams complaining that the Flames played “too rough and tough”. This team has set a record in the TFHL for a winning playoff record of 16-2. I bet it will never be broken. This goes to show how much of a genius I am as a GM.”

The Flames are looking forward to a well deserved off-season, upcoming draft and future trades (yes, I want to make some trades).
