yeah yeah, 2nd game in as many nights AND it went to OT, but man. rough game to watch

While I don't disagree, the elite teams find ways to win even when they have an off night. Case in point Chicago beating us two seasons ago when Emery had the game of his life, and the Flames had arguably their best game of the season.
I am definitely NOT saying the Flames are even close to an elite team let alone a good one at this point, but there are definitely positives to take from tonight. The PK was awesome, goaltending was incredible and the effort was there on the second night of a back to back.
