The World Cup Final Is In Edmonton… WHAT ARE WE DOING?? | FN Barn Burner



Boomer, Pinder and Rhett react to breaking news that Calgary and Edmonton will host games for the upcoming World Cup of Hockey — but the guys aren’t thrilled with how things were divided up. While both cities are getting games, Edmonton will host the two semifinal matchups and the championship game, leaving Calgary with only group stage and elimination round action. The crew debates why Edmonton landed the biggest games and whether Calgary got short-changed despite the city moving forward with plans for a new arena. Needless to say, the guys have some thoughts.

  1. Calgarys new Arena district is and will not be in the same league as Edmontons. Edmonton has had a 7 year head start. Proof of concept is there. Edmonton district is proven. The Oilers are proven. The Flames arent. The Arena isnt.

  2. Why do you guys even care ? Did you know that on the draft Van and Cal will not see top 4 pick states first then Canada unless Edmonton is in the mix then even if the Oilers were in the bottom 10 they would end up with with top 3 pick always Picks will be CB first st L 2nd NY 3rd then between Van Jets then Cal I betcha. NHL will never let the Flames get ahead.

  3. As an oilers fan I don’t understand why we are getting the finals you guys will have the newer rink

  4. Piss off! You had the 88 Olympics! Which you still talk about 😂😂 they wanted to be in a winning city and the best hockey fans in hockey! 😂😂😂😂😂😂

  5. They chose both cities and edmonton gets it because its new building worked out the kinks and ours is not even done yet let alone got tge kinks out

  6. Team Alberta, recently independent and free of the yoke of Ottawa,
    automatically gets a spot in the tournament as host!
    Wooohoooo!

  7. Anybody remember the old Calgary arena? Seating capacity about 6,000. I think overflow parking was roadside by the ditch.

  8. Metallica, AC/DC, Foo fighters, Morgan Wallen only come to Edmonton because Calgary is a shit hole.

  9. We don't want you in Edmonton anyway won't be able to get rid of the negativity for weeks you know I watch you because you are a stark contrast to the Edmonton sports coverage who consistently praise the broken parts of the team however you are obviously the most toxic fans in what I consider a very friendly neighbour in Calgary I understand you having passion for your team but to show a deep resentment and hate and disrespect for a whole city because you love you team is stupid I will not watch another video

  10. aaaaaaand we would have TWO NHL rinks for that time period, Garey hates us obviously, im with Rhett im boycotting it. Bastardos.

  11. These 3 stooges know nothing about business even when it's simple. Ownership groups bid for the right to host games and the Edmonton group put more money into their bid for the semi-finals and finals than Calgary did. Calgary could have and would have had the semi's and finals if Edward's was willing to out spend Katz to get those games. Instead of ranting, the 3 stooges need to ask Edwards why he wasn't willing to pony up more cash. Could be that Katz was willing to spend whatever it took to get those games and he has more money than Edwards. Moreover, the Oilers generate the most revenue in the league behind the Leafs, and the semi's and the final gives the Oilers exposure and adds franchise value. The semi's and final weren't awarded to Edmonton out of the goodness of the Bettman's and the other owners' hearts, it all came down to money.

  12. Calgary got $330 MILLION for "ARENA INFRASTRUCTURE" from the Province for the new Arena…
    PROVINCIAL AND FEDERAL FOR THE 1988 OLYMPICS
    EDMONTON GOT ZERO FROM THE PROVINCE FOR THEIR NEW ARENA…
    Honestly guys. You complain too much on this one…Learn to take YES for an answer once in a while.

  13. Well all the teams have to fly into Calgary because Edmonton only has direct flights to Kelowna and Toronto

  14. Provincial money played a big part in this bid. It is a sports channel, no need for politics to muddy the water.

  15. Love your response rhett…. i think mcjesus will still be edmonton….maybe kattz and bettman made some kind of deal so 97 will stay longer…..it kinda sucks that we didnt get the finals but even by then we arent going to be great ….yet…. so i see the nhl hype
