A Tale of Two Connors

Darren shouts out a few different Flames players that are on the road to greatness, while Stu's rare optimism sees the Oilers heading in the right direction. In Cellys and Scorn Stu channels his inner Tortorella unintentionally pivoting his celly into a scorn about why the NHL should not penalize embellishment. And Darren pleads with the league to fix the constant momentum killer of Coach's Challenges. @PodcastBOA [https://twitter.com/podcastboa]   Theme Song: "Lose Your Head" [http://bit.ly/2SmZUGO] by Apache Tomcat [http://bit.ly/2MXpcW9] from the Free Music Archive [http://bit.ly/2UTkIlR] (CC by NC [http://bit.ly/2TGyKHy])

Craig Conroy: Dumpster Diver

Darren admires Conroy's ability to find a diamond in the rough and it's helping the Flames' solidly middle-of-the-road start to the season. Meanwhile further north, the Oilers just can't get going (even with McDavid's miracle-working medical team). But just how long can they let that go on before it's too late. In Cellys and Scorn the guys question the new PWHL team names, Stu criticizes fans that think booing the refs is in their best interest, and Darren shouts out CapWages [https://capwages.com/] as the Capfriendly alternative we needed, even if it isn't the one we deserve. @PodcastBOA [https://twitter.com/podcastboa]   Theme Song: "Lose Your Head" [http://bit.ly/2SmZUGO] by Apache Tomcat [http://bit.ly/2MXpcW9] from the Free Music Archive [http://bit.ly/2UTkIlR] (CC by NC [http://bit.ly/2TGyKHy])

It's Been a Reeaallllyy Looooooong Offseason

It's been a really long offseason for our guys (although not quite as long for the Flames, and even less so for the Oilers) so there is a lot for them to talk about. Draft picks galore for the Flames, roster changes, contract shenanigans, questionable back office changes, and very high hopes... for one of the teams anyway. Of course the long-awaited (for somebody surely) Cellys and Scorn involving Utah's new hockey team (that you may or may not be able to see, depending on where you're sitting in their arena) and an appreciation for the hockey community coming together in times of sadness. This episode is dedicated to Johnny Gaudreau, Matthew Gaudreau, and Stephen Jones. @PodcastBOA [https://twitter.com/podcastboa]   Theme Song: "Lose Your Head" [http://bit.ly/2SmZUGO] by Apache Tomcat [http://bit.ly/2MXpcW9] from the Free Music Archive [http://bit.ly/2UTkIlR] (CC by NC [http://bit.ly/2TGyKHy])

Welcome to Ottazona

Darren hit the nail on the head with his prediction for the Oilers results in October, but neither of the guys were anywhere close for the Flames. Time to find out if they've learned their lesson for November. Plus Cellys and Scorn lead to the guys dreaming of everybody's favorite Canadian owning an NHL franchise. @PodcastBOA [https://twitter.com/podcastboa]   Theme Song: "Lose Your Head" [http://bit.ly/2SmZUGO] by Apache Tomcat [http://bit.ly/2MXpcW9] from the Free Music Archive [http://bit.ly/2UTkIlR] (CC by NC [http://bit.ly/2TGyKHy])

Yelling at Ads and Jerseys

The guys discuss how wrong they are (so far) this year with the Oilers weak start and the Flames surprising win to start the season, a first in a very long time. Plus plenty of jersey talk, complaining about board ads, and some special tributes round out the Cellys and Scorn. @PodcastBOA [https://twitter.com/podcastboa]   Theme Song: "Lose Your Head" [http://bit.ly/2SmZUGO] by Apache Tomcat [http://bit.ly/2MXpcW9] from the Free Music Archive [http://bit.ly/2UTkIlR] (CC by NC [http://bit.ly/2TGyKHy])
