Especially Kypreos.
Funny i always thought that sports media like a good Cinderella sports story.
If it was the Oilers or the Leafs i bet the response would be more supportive.

I highly doubt it. There's no conspiracy here. The Flames have received more positive press than any team this year. Mirtle says nothing groundbreaking or wrong here.
Flames have been outshot for large stretches this year, and that will likely mean a bit of a fall. We can all come up with arguments against it, but Mirtle's argument was not an emotional one. It's one he made last year for the eastern darling Leafs.
