It's March 5th, 19 games left in the season, and the Flames are in a playoff position, right in the heart of a playoff race!

I just got goosebumps thinking about it.

Realistically, I don't think anyone outside Aaron Ward gave them a sliver of a chance to be here this late in the season.

Odds are against us? Who the hell cares. We are playing with house money from this point. All we have to do is keep pulling out points, like the undeserved two we got in Philly, and we could achieve the unthinkable at season's beginning.

C of Red. Deafening Go Flames Go chants. The all day excitement that every gameday brings.

The thing that made '04 so special was that we were true underdogs. Nothing beats that. Even when we were the 8th seed later on, we were an underachieving skill team.

But this team makes '04 look like juggernauts. This could go down as one of the greatest underdog teams of all time.

Gosh darnit I'm excited!
Drop the puck!
