Johnny played great and so did the rest of the team after the 1st but they're going to need to get their #### together.

Oh god, the hyperbole.
Absolutely, the Flames would be in great shape if they start to show better in the first period. But it is ridiculous to point to this flaw in their game as their certain undoing. If this continues, will it make qualifying for the playoffs much more difficult? You bet. Impossible? No. Improbable? I'm not even sure. I've honestly given up trying to figure out what this team can and cannot, or will and will not do.
