I had that nagging feeling from the end of October until the end of January. The fact that they were able to basically erase an 8 game losing streak and remain in the mix at the all-star game just made that feeling go away.

There is a huge culture on the Flames now and even if they miss the playoffs I boblieve they are for real now and the nagging feeling has gone away. Gio might be out, but I think his heart is now fully ingrained in the room.

Last night I recorded the game, at 4-0 I fast forwarded it, I thought about turning it off and checking the score but figured lets just fast forward to the 3rd period comeback. That's how I feel about this team now.
