Agreed. I feel like the curse has been lifted
Tkachuks comments were awesome, “For my fans in Calgary, I couldn’t let Edmonton win the cup!”
Love it
♡ he didn't leave calgary in a bad way. I got no beef, I loved him as a flame and I'm really happy for this team. Panthers deserve this
Nah, fuck Tkachuk. But thanks for this moment
I'm salty about him blossoming in Florida but he's an A+ hater and I like it. The Oilers didn't win, that's what matters.
Why hate Tkachuk? When he left he helped us get insane trade value (at the time, nobody knew Huberdeau would forget how to play hockey).
And unlike Gudreau he didn’t fuck is in the 11th hour.
While I won’t say I still don’t have negative feelings towards him, this was super classy and I definitely dislike him much less
For what. The teams best player bailed for nothing, and he took the opportunity to do what he wanted to do. Play down south and win. You should be saying fuck Treliving. Thanks to Tkachuk Treliving is gone, and we have a great GM with a path set on building a VERY bright future for the Flames.
If Tkachuk stayed Treliving may have stayed too, signed some aging plugs like he always did hired a crap coach and we would've been bounced by Edmonton in the first round, AND there wouldn't have been a wagon in the east to stop them.
Edit for hypothetical situation
Agreed
Does anyone have a clip of this? I missed it. Love Tkachuk he was my favourite player before he left. Will never forgive GMBT for not locking him in long term. Congratulations Matty!
Not the best quality, but: https://youtube.com/shorts/Xvs_mTppvtM
Best comment of the night for sure
I'm just sad that Tkachuk couldn't lift the cup in Edmonton for Game 4 or 6. Would have driven the northern team's fans batty.
I need to have video proof of this
Haha greatest quote of the playoffs
What an incredible statement to make at that time, it shows he was still thinking about us - Chucky is a winner. Real class, a pity we couldn't hold onto him but once JG left, his destiny was sealed and good on him. Incredible how all x-flames on the Panthers were key for them, even Lombard on the 4th was effective.
Literally cannot hate the guy
Cats fan here! Thanks for the support Calgary, glad we didn’t let you down 🫡
You did it. You fucking did it. We love upu
Dammit, I'm late to the party!
We love You too👍
I mean, we'll still hate you later, but for now we're good! 😉
We’re taking great care of Weegs, you be nice
That will always be appreciated. ;)
You guys came through in the clutch!
🫡
They just had to send bobby for an oil change on the off day. Turns out he was due for inspection
Bros for life 🤝
I was hoping for a nice and embarrassing clean sweep, so you let me down a little bit.
Also a Panthers fan. But if I was a Flames fan, I think the Oilers losing in the way they did is better. Oilers fans had the hope and belief that they were gonna win the cup after winning 3 straight only to have that hope ripped away at the last second. It's the hope that kills you.
Can’t be mad at Chucky for getting to lift the cup
If it was Gaudreau though…
Matthew still loves us ❤️, no hard feelings for him. All things considered the Huberdeau trade looked pretty fair at the time. Glad him and Bennett got to lift it.
The Huberdeau trade looks fair now. I'll accept that contract and whatever comes of it, a high cost but for a great cause...ie helping Florida beat Edmonton.
Still have hope that Huby can be a good player for yall. I was sad when we traded him.
He could not lift it?

I mean sure but he kinda led us on if I remember right
Cheers to you Panthers fans! Enjoy that cup and defeating the evil.
The Calgary vs Edmonton vibe feels so much like Florida vs New Yorkers.
Hope you guys have a great season this fall!
As a panthers fan this feels like Frodo dropping the ring into mount doom. The evil has been slain. Go cats and thank you flames fans!!!
No, thank you
Don’t forget Canucks fans. Hell yeah brothers. So sweet so sweet.
Can we Kings fans join the party?
Get in here!
Devils fan reporting for duty at the party!
🤝 (pretend it’s a huge dap of approval)
👊
Flames and Panthers fans boutta parade the streets together LFG
You're welcome Calgary its the least we can do❤️
Panthers are now our sister team, we also fucking hate Tampa!
Can our fanbases just get married?
now kith
Goddammit I wish Tkachuk and Bennett were lifting it in slightly different shade of red but still...RED TEAM WIN!
Your subreddit was always getting recommended to me. Thank you to everyone in this subreddit for your hopes and blessings. I will always root for Calgary now too!!
Love chucky. And panthers have always been the underdog in my mind. Tampa always gets the news coverage over them but I’m a huge chucky and Benny fan. So I love the panthers now that they beat the oilers. They are now my east team 🤝
Love you bro 🤝
Vanquished both Tampa and Edmonton?
The cats and their fans will always have a home in Calgary!
When the gun smoke settles we'll sing a victory tune And we'll all meet back at the local saloon We'll raise up our glasses against evil forces singing Whiskey for my men, beer for my horses
My favourite annual post!
Bro, can anyone get in on this party!?
As long as you hate the coilers
Oh buddy, I can't stand em
Welcome.
Welcome aboard
Canucks Fans 🤝 Flames Fans 🤝 Panther Fans
The flames have won the cup!!!!!
Stoked for Chucky and Benny
Edit: and Mr. Ryan Lomberg
For what it's worth, we love lomberg here in Florida too
My bad for forgetting about him! I suck
Lol Chucky wanted out so fast keep simping
I love how this video is used every year
Dallas fan:
HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHHAHHAHAHHA
Lol this comment section is the best. It's like the end of Independence Day when everyone is calling in to say they downed an alien spaceship.
I rejoice with you flames and panthers bros.
You are most welcome
Anyone got a clip of the Tkachuk quote
Man I love the panthers so much. They saved us from oblivion
the impending 10 year rebuild has never been more worth it
Nah Conroy is no dummy like Lowe. I feel like 5 to 7 is an okay number.
The yearly tradition returns
Thank you Florida
Annual Oilers lose day!!!
Oh yeah, I’m so here for this one!
Your hatred of the Oilers fueled us when we were shaken by those 3 straight losses.
Cats fans 🤝 Flames fans
Fuck Edmonton
Nucks fans??
We bros too
I am being savage, returning the favor of the shit talk we took back in 04.
I told my family if Florida won, I would get a Panthers tattoo under my Flames one. Time to book an appointment!
Post a pic when you get it done! Retro panthers logo is tight Imo
That’s the image I want, actually!
Get a flaming panther
Gonna ask the bartender for one of those!
Cats fan just popping in, this series made me realize how much I can’t stand Oilers fans. Will be cheering y’all on next season 🤝 congrats on the cup flames!!!
Yes they are the most toxic in the NHL. Thank you for shutting them up.
LETS GOOOO BABY!!! WE TOOK DOWN THE OIL AND YOU GUYS CAN COME PARTY WITH US!!
I'm really happy for Bennett. It was too bad he didn't work out here but still glad he turned into an integral part of a cup winning team. Well done.
CATS FAN HERE! LOVE YOU BOYS AND GIRLS IN CALGARY!
Lol you guys are assholes 🤣
Generational hating. I gotta come to Alberta one day
I had to wait until almost July for this in 2024. This is rude, flames. You need to get your contingency plans together faster.
Florida man here. You guys rock! I'm always gonna pull for Calgary now. You stuck with us and believed when no one else did. You are honorary Floridians from this day forward. 🔥🤝🐀
🤝
Happy Oilers elimination week!
Canucks fan here. Love both of you guys rn. Group hug!!
Literally me🤣🤣 love you guys, yall are the real ones of Alberta I promise you that!!!
Gotta love seeing the yearly post of this gif. I was getting worried there for a second.
Respect 🫡-a happy cats fan
Thanks bros, you guys felt like the only ones that had our backs at times. Glad we didn’t disappoint
How you like us now flame fans?
You done good kittens. Enjoy your silverware.
Yo, Canucks fan here, can we get in on this celebration? Congrats, Panthers, and how great did Lu look raising that cup?
From a panthers fan thank you guys so much for all of your support! I will truly cherish this memory!! Let us all be happy that Edmonton is stuck at 15!!
Also note I really need to visit Calgary now! You guys are awesome!
I’LL GET THE GLASSES 🍾
Lmao this is great
Thanks for the support guys! So happy to have the cup in Florida!!!!! Here’s to both of us having a great season next year!
I really hope we can turn things around and this season. And tune out team into an offensive powerhouse. The pieces are there, the real loser in this whole thing are weeger and hubby. And I gave faith that he will turn it around this year with our sexy eastern European talent and our rookies.
Hell yeah, I’m sure that cups going to be in your city this summer at some point
I love you guys! Thank you for the support!!!
Canucks fan here. Happy to see you guys also had some former players win the cup. It was awesome to see Tkachuk and Luongo shout out our cities.
Shoutout Calgary we cats love u guys
Can confirm. Cats fan here (banned from their sub for a meme LOL). I fuck with Calgary (battle of Alberta, team history of being a fire brigade) anyways, love you y’all, hope you have a better season next year and FUCK THE OILERS
Oiler fans not posting at all right now, such a nice change over the last week
Wooooooo! Calgary Flames fans are the beauts of Alberta.
Idk they should be coming to the Edmonton sub because apparently that sub is Real Sensitive. Hahaha
Cats fan here…thanks fam, for your support! 🤝
About time this gif was posted
Hey, thank you all for the support! To hell with Edmonton!
Bro I’m a Leaf fan and this is 100% me too. Absolutely hate the Oilers. I’ve been lurking in this subreddit hoping with you all that Florida would win. I wanted a sweep but forcing a game 7 only to lose is real pain, I know from experience.
I’m not a Calgary or Panthers fan (canes) but I have always had a soft spot for the flames. My fav Canadian team by far.
It's been a real treat visiting here from Florida, you guys are hilarious!
I really hope to see huberdeau win a cup with you, preferably after shitting on the oilers and their nasty fans along the way
lets go flames fans, panthers love y’all
You know it, just joined the subreddit this morning. Y’all are my western conference team now!
Super late to this party but WOOOOO!!!! ♥️
I am now a Flames AND panthers fan
Cock and balls.
Literally, me
Some of yall were saying “fuck the panthers” and “we are gonna boo them so hard when they come here” before the series even ended. I can’t imagine being a Florida fan wanting anything to do with yall tbh
Were you one of the ones who booed the Canadian anthem last night?
i'm not happy about either outcome
i can't watch matthew tkachuk's shit-eating grin
He’s not our enemy…
Why? He asked for a trade, he could have walked for nothing like Gaudreau and pretend like he was interested in signing for most of a year.
His departure was handled fairly well and the return was good at the time.
i mean, i cant blame the guy at all for wanting to get the fuck out of Calgary. Shit weather most year, shit management team. This rebuild is going to be long and painful and we dont have the luck of any 1st picks like oilers had.
We also botched the chance to sign him to a long term extension. It's on Treliving and management for allowing the bridge that created that Free Agency shitshow in the first place.
Yeah fuck him. Greasy POS

Holy fuck, Lames as in like, Flames without the F? You. Are. Hilarious. Man, did you come up with that all on your own? When does your Netflix special drop?
Fuck you people are pathetic
lol why you so mad
The Flames are soft and should have stood up for Tkachuk during the muzzin puck flip. Weak ass 9 to 5 hockey, Tkachuk was putting in that overtime.
Oilers lost lol
And we lost Tkachuk lol
"we"
Correct he was on the Flames he is not now
Someone's phone just came back online. You're gonna love reading about the last few years.
What a wholesome moment for our subreddit... Couldn't ask for a better ending. Getting that close then heartbreak...
