Rock bottom in terms of morale has passed. Seeing iginla leave was extremely tough for older, and more casual fans. Was extremely hard to see him go for people who love the flames, even some who were begging for rebuild.
The flames will likely finish lower next year, but it will be ok, because it will have been expected, or at least not unexpected. Most will gain some satisfaction from a max Reinhardt hat ttrick, or a michal Backlund scoring streak, or TJ Brodie positive +/- season.
But, just throwing this out there, 1 in 3, or 2 in 7 chance we make playoffs before the oilers?
2 in 5 we win a series before the Canucks?
