I have no doubt the Flames will find their groove. They will be much better than 2-8-1 over the rest of the season. Point being, the hole is too deep to make the playoffs in this tight league now.
Flames are much better than people thought they would be this time last year, but they also got good fortune to make it.
I'll be a real fan, accept tgeir fate, but cheer on the progress of our young players thus year, and hope management doesn't falter into short term thinking this year and keeps playing the long game.
