I must say though, watching a Flames game cheering for the other side is weird. All of a sudden, the Flames defense, offense, and goaltending look strong compared to the competition. Now I'm noticing the other teams running around in their own zone or not scoring when they should be.

I said in the game thread that since the Iginla and Bouwmeester were traded the Flames have played their best defensively all season. Not sure if there is a correlation but it is what it is.
It just feels wrong that going 4-6 in your last ten games actually moves you up 3-4 places in the standings. I just don't understand how the other 5/6 teams can be so horrible.
