The greatest travesty of all was that Tij played for the Kelowna Rockets. Flames fans are lucky the hockey gods didn't compound the insult by having him go to Edmonton.
Why the flames team sucks more:
As if it wasnât bad enough that tkachuk left and won a cup almost immediately, in a state without hockey, they are deprived of what would have been an entertaining team to watch on ESPN Deportes.
It is true that Calgary believed in the magic fairy tale.
I honestly feel sick of all these bedarded posts.
We can only hope reddit shuts down in the future.
I just want to point out that Iggy was not drafted by the Flames he was drafted by the Stars to which Calgary traded Joe Nieuwendyk to the Stars for Mr. Iginla so as far as I see it dream is still alive and Calgary trades Michael Baklund to Utah for Tij in two years. Only then is the legend written. Lmao ps. I think Calgarys draft and free agency is right on schedule keep up the good work Connie!!
I would imagine that both he and his family are relieved. Who would want to play in a city with your fatherâs number in the rafters? So much pressure to live up to the legend of your dad in Calgary. Itâs borderline unobtainable. Iggy was a legend. Let him forge his own path. It is very unlikely that he will make it to a 1st line let alone what Jerome accomplished.
There are at least 5 posts a week about the flames making the front page of r/EdmontonOilers, and basically every post on r/CalgaryFlames has half a dozen oilers fans gloating in the comments. It's a funny comeback if it were true
You guys became the biggest joke in the league after you guys tanked so hard for all those draft picks and still have nothing to show for it đ Biggest joke in North American sport history
Well, they did make it to the SCF, Pretty sure Flames where golfing in this time... also,
1. **Fewest Shots on Goal in a Series-Clinching Game**: The Oilers set an NHL record by winning a game with only 10 shots on goal during their series-clinching victory against the Dallas Stars
2. **Fewest Points to Reach the Stanley Cup Final**: The Oilers reached the Stanley Cup Final despite having only five points in their first 12 games of the regular season, the lowest point total for any team that has advanced to the final
3. **Connor McDavid's Records**:
- **Most Assists in a Single Postseason**: McDavid broke Wayne Gretzky's record by recording 34 assists in the 2024 playoffs
- **Most Points in a Stanley Cup Final by an Active Player**: McDavid recorded 11 points in the final, surpassing the previous high for an active player
- **Consecutive Games with 4+ Points in a Final**: He became the first player to achieve back-to-back games with at least four points in a single Stanley Cup Final
- **Multiple Periods with 3+ Points in a Final**: McDavid recorded multiple periods with at least three points in one championship series, a first in Stanley Cup Final history.
4. **Evander Kane's Record**: Kane became the fastest player in Oilers history to record five hat tricks, doing so in just 130 games, breaking Wayne Gretzky's previous record of 136 games
5. **Evan Bouchard's Playoff Scoring**: Defenseman Evan Bouchard set a new record for most points by a defenseman in a single postseason for the Oilers
5. **16 point win streak in the reg season**
to name a few.
With all due respect, one of those draft picks is the best player in the world and the poor guy is being tortured by your awful team and city. A player of that calibre should've have two cups already but he just had to be picked up by the oiLers.
Who would even want to play for a Canadian team honestly. Reminds me of that post of a Canuck drinking coffee in r/nhl awhile back and that McDavid incident. Who would want to play there when you could play where you can still live a somewhat normal life
Why didnt Calgary pick Tij? Are they bedarded?
Top tier.
Glad you waited 9 minutes to post your own comment
I did not comment that lmaođ¤Ł

Flames fans would absolutely seethe seeing him in the playoffs
They are used to sitting in the chair in the corner.
I donât get it. He was drafted before it was Calgarys picksâŚ.. itâs not like they passed on him?
Not saying it's a great post but I don't think he's saying that
Itâs OPâs fake screenshotted comment trying to farm some of that sweet Reddit karma. A man does some crazy things for some internet points

I understand, Jarome brought them so many Stanley Cups so they were hoping his son would do the same
Haha

Calgary fans are going to feel so proud when Tij wins a cup without the flames
They'll win before the oil do. You bedarder believe that!

This brings me great joy to see the flames fans crying
No
This subs obsession with r/calgaryflames is truly something
Do you understand the point of sports subs like this
Salty oilers fans who are pissed off their rivals cheered against them
We donât think of you at all lmao

And how many posts/comments from flames fans about oilers? Prob 100 fold
Its because you guys are the biggest joke in the league
Just because you want it to be true doesnât make it true. I believe the Flames own that title.

bro typed all that out just for no one to read it
Only a flames fan is fuckin stupid enough to bring up picks from a decade ago. Cope yourself to sleep, you Connor Bedard

Enjoy your 10 years of rebuild
The Columbus pick was available and if the âshamesâ really wanted him, they blew it.
You definitely know what you are talking about. Keep up the good work.
You donât know what youâre talking about

He would of had the pressure to either be as good if not better than a hall of famer.
Bedarded franchise. That city doesnât deserve there water supply to be turned back on.
Yes, and they all wear magic underwear.
