[FlamesAllTheWay]

Already been alluded to but that streak is what we'll look back on if we miss the playoffs. 1, 2, 3 pts out of 16 is bad enough but that could be the difference between 8th and 9th at the end of the season.

That said, we gave ourselves a big enough of a cushion to keep ourselves in the hunt even when we lost 8 straight. And we're now bouncing back in a big way as well.

At the end of the day, if we were to make the playoffs we're probably right where we should be so I guess some ups and downs are to be expected. Especially given the growing our team is doing and has yet to do, being a young, developing team going through a rebuild and all.

I didn't vote though as to me, negating the streak is whether or not we still make the playoffs. The question sort of implies it IMO and, again, if we don't make it the 8 game losing streak is likely what we look back on as a primary reason why.
