A lot of Flames fans are transitioning to the same mentality that Oiler fans had during their crap years (outside of the cheering for last place) so not too surprising that the "excitement" factor is now being overblown.

What a load of absolute garbage to try and compare this year's Flames team with the Oilers of the last three years.
They were one of the worst teams in history. They didn't even try to win. Everyone knew they sucked. The only thing fans could extract from the games was "well, at least they are becoming more exciting". It was either that or quit on the team.
If you watched last night and you saw the 2010 Oilers, all I can say is good luck to you.
