I hope to god they do but I dunno, they play like that first period again and they're screwed. Any other team and that game is down 4-1 end of first and a completely different story. They NEED to show up for Arizona which just crushed San Jose tonight.

Agreed. I'm happy with the win tonight, as we desperately needed the 2 points. But if the Flames play another first period like they did tonight in these last 3 games, this team is in trouble and likely won't make the dance. They need to show up ready to play at puck drop if they want to get in, especially against the Kings and Jets.
