The Calgary Flames may have to do without goaltender Karri Ramo for a while. The 27-year-old Finn suffered an MCL injury during Saturday nights game against the Minnesota Wild and will be out until after the Olympic break. The Flames called up goalkeeper Joni Ortio from the American Hockey Leagues Abbotsford Heat. In 29 games with the Flames this season, Ramo has posted a 11-10-4 record with a .908 save percentage and a 2.66 goals-against average. He has 22-31-0-14 record in 77 career NHL games with the Flames and Tampa Bay Lightning. He was originally selected in the sixth round (191st overall) of the 2004 NHL Entry Draft. Mark Stone Jersey .

And the Calgary Stampeders colourful defensive co-ordinator has no shortage of entertaining material for his meetings with coaches and players. "He has jokes for days about everything," said linebacker Juwan Simpson. "We have to stop him, though, because meetings go a lot longer than theyre supposed to because of stories." Along with that cache of football lore is the experience and expertise that comes from serving on the coaching staffs of, and winning Grey Cups with, four other CFL clubs. Add the high school, college and Arena Football League jobs Stubler has also held and hes been in the profession 45 years. "Hes probably forgotten more football than we all know in our whole defensive meeting room combined," defensive line coach DeVone Claybrooks said. Stubler broke into the CFL as the Hamilton Tiger-Cats defensive co-ordinator 31 years ago. Hes designed defences for 25 years with the Ticats, B.C. Lions, Edmonton Eskimos and Toronto Argonauts. He also served as the Argos head coach in 08. John Hufnagel, Calgarys head coach/GM, hired Stubler this off-season after Rick Campbell left to become the head coach of the expansion Ottawa Redblacks. Stubler arrived following a two-year stint with B.C., whose defence was ranked first overall against the run and pass in 2012. Halfway through the 2014 campaign, Calgary is allowing a league-low 14.9 points per game. In four contests this season, the Stampeders havent surrendered an offensive touchdown. Opposing offences havent found the endzone against Calgary on their last 29 drives and only once in the last 37 possessions. Defensive end Shawn Lemon exuberantly declared Stubler "a genius" following the Stampeders 28-13 win over the Edmonton Eskimos on Labour Day. Calgary (8-1) boasts the CFLs best record heading into its rematch with Edmonton (7-2) at Commonwealth Stadium on Saturday. "Stube has brought his style of defence that I knew he would," Hufnagel said. "The players have embraced it and theyre playing it very well. "We still have room for improvement, but they are doing a great job of tackling and thats the key to what Stube likes to do on defence." Stubler says football is much the same now as it was when his father coached. When Stubler arrived in Calgary, his goal was the same as its been with other CFL teams he has been with, which is matching a players strengths and skills with a job and empowering him to do it. "Football is not based on schemes," he said. "You have to be able to adapt everybody thats in your system to be able to maximize what they can do. "If they can take ownership of whatts happening, we have a chance to be pretty good.dddddddddddd. If they cant take ownership, we wont be very good." Stubler, a 65-year-old native of Garfield County, Colo., took over a defence that featured such veteran leaders as Simpson, rush end Charleston Hughes and defensive backs Keon Raymond and Brandon Smith. Rather than impose his years of experience on them, Simpson and Claybrooks say its Stublers light hand and inclusiveness that has galvanized the defence. "He knows a lot of football and you have no choice but to respect a guy who has been around a game this long and been this successful as long as he has," Simpson explains. "One thing he does is allow us players to play football. He plays to the strength of his players, not the strength of his quote-unquote defence. "He allows us to go out and if we want to try something well try it. If it doesnt work, this is why it didnt work. Not only do we believe in him, we believe in ourselves. Were the ones out there running the defence. Hes made that very clear." Claybrooks agrees. "Thats what Stube does a great job with," he said. "He lets his coaches coach and his players play. "Hes not a micromanager." Claybrooks is in his third season as defensive line coach after three seasons patrolling Calgarys defensive line. When the defence gathers for the game-plan meeting, he says nothing is off-limits and creativity is encouraged. "The players make it their own because theyre like Why dont we tweak this and that and do this and that? " Claybrooks said. "A lot of defensive co-ordinators would be like No, this is how the blitz is run. Were going to run it that way. "They are out there running the plays and if it works better for them where theyre comfortable in it and they believe in it, then were a success." Stubler believes he still has another five years of coaching in him. That would take him to age 70 and give him 50 years in the profession. "I started coaching when I was 20 and my dad was a coach before me and thats my identity I guess," he said. Claybrooks interviewed for Calgarys defensive co-ordinators job and had opportunities to go elsewhere this season. But one reason he remained in Calgary was the opportunity to work alongside Stubler. "From a longterm growth of where I want to be in the future, this is the greatest situation because you get to learn from a guy who has been a defensive co-ordinator 27 years in this league and a coach for 40-some years," Claybrooks said. "You think you know everything and he draws up something, and youre like Wow, why didnt I think of that? "Then our favourite saying to him is Thats why they pay you the big bucks.
