During the lean Iginla era years, when things were bad, people were giving up early but they also had low expectations coming in.
This season had high expectations so to have people calling for Auston Matthews so freakin early really surprises me.
Just an observation.

The Flames would have to magically rediscover themselves and suddenly start playing at 100% capacity (1st 10 mins of home opener, 2nd + 3rd periods vs DET) the entire season to have a crack at playoffs.
Not that it's impossible, but it's really unlikely at this point. Even if we build a rhythm and start to win more like 2 outta 3, settling back into slumps of only a single game before bouncing back to win... that kind of pace would not get you into the playoffs in this deep of a hole. You're talking president's trophy level pace. Stupid EA.
