Watching the Flames score with 29 seconds left to take a 1-0 series lead against the Canucks in my first ever playoff game: Priceless
What a game. After the Canucks scored I was pretty annoyed for the rest of the second. I had a feeling though they would turn it up in the third and sure enough they did. I tried not to be very vocal in case there were some ######bags in my section but when Russell scored it was hard not to get excited. I didn't like Horvat's goal but Hiller was awesome.
I thought about trying to get a ticket for game 2 but I might just end up watching at home. I found the fans in my section really whiny and I don't think I want to sit 2 1/2 hours through that again. Every time a Flame hit a Canuck they would whine for a penalty. I didn't think the officiating was good either but body contact is allowed in hockey and the Canucks had plenty of powerplays. It was pretty funny though when the guy beside was sitting there depressed like they had just lost the series.

None of that changes the fact that the first play-off goal you ever witnessed was scored by a Vancouver Canuck.
I hope you somehow manage to find the help and support you need to overcome that crushing disappointment that you'll have to live with for the rest of your life.
Thanks for the noise though - it didn't go un-noticed how much noise Flames fans were making at the game.
