We will be giving out a pair of tickets to tonight's Flames vs Devils game in a contest that will start at noon. We will post up a picture and the first person to identify the player in the picture will win.
The player may be a current, or former player on the Calgary Flames. If no one is able to identify the player, we will provide hints in regular intervals as the contest progresses. If no one gets it by 2pm, we will draw randomly from everyone that participates.
Post a new reply if you want to change your answer, editing your post(s) will disqualify you from the contest.
It may be the last time to see Jagr and Brodeur play at the dome.

That picture just screams late 70's/early 80's. And the eyes seems weirdly proportioned from his nose, something I've always thought about Steve Staios. So that's my guess.

I thought for sure it would be a player who played for the Flames and Devils. I was looking at Jason Weimer, Brendan Morrison, Tommy Albelin, David Hale, Jeff Friesen, Oliwa, PL3...

Did it, nothing.
Google Image Search, uploaded the photo, nothing.
Even looked in your HTML for info using Toggle Web Inspector.... photo had no clues.

Google up NHL player as kids, and that blog comes up with tons of pics of NHL'ers as kids. For the flames category there was iggy, way too obvious, and the sexually ambiguous Staios.
To ensure Image Search doesn't work, we lightroom'd the pic, cropped it, stripped it of metadata haha. We're not rookies here for this contest stuff. :rofl:

We altered the photo so that wouldn't work. First thing we tested :P
Not too many home games for the rest of this month, but we'll run some more contests when the home games resume.

Props if you actually thought of Staios, I was thinking Al Macinnis.

To be fair I don't remember him at all from Calgary, just his playoff run with Edmonton. Forgot he played with the Flames at all at first
