Calgary Flames 2017 wish list: What they asked for from Santa
By Ramina Shlah
Curtis Lazar: Look Santa, I know I haven’t been that great and everyone thinks my signing was a bust. Maybe help me get some points? I could use them. You’re the best!
Garnet Hathaway: I’ve been well with Benny and Janko. All I ask is that I can keep it up and not be sent down anytime soon.

Sean Monahan: I get it, I’m boring. Last year, I asked for people to stop comparing me to Boring Monahan. This year, I’m accepting it. Maybe you can let me hit 40 goals this season for the first time in my career. And help my good friend Johnny out of his slump.
Travis Hamonic: Me and Brods like JUST started getting chemistry and you had to go and give me an injury. Please Santa, no more injuries.
Freddie Hamilton: I’d like to play more with my brother. I know I haven’t been good this year, but let’s face it, I’m better than Lazar (don’t tell him I said that). Anyways Santa, thanks for not sending me down when I cleared waivers so I could stay up with Doug. I’d like more minutes please.
Michael Stone: I don’t have a lot to ask this year. You gave me a great contract, but maybe I could get more minutes (Don’t tell Travis I’m asking for this).
Dougie Hamilton: More opportunties for Dougie Bombs.
David Rittich: You’ve already given me what I wanted, Santa! Finally playing up with the Calgary Flames is a dream. And it’s super cool playing with a Czech legend like Jagr. Also be nice to Fro for inviting me over for Christmas, that was nice of him.
