Considering the start the Flames had thus far, that would be something huge that they could plaster in the dressing room. To hell with all the problems thus far, they'd be within striking distance of putting themselves back on track.

This is the only silver lining as far as I'm concerned (this and Gaudreau's play). It definitely isn't over, but it feels like it is. Reason for that is the team isn't showing any signs of figuring this out. It's been a long stretch, a very long stretch, of being the absolute worst team in the league. It's hard to imagine them being better enough to actually compete for a playoff spot, especially with the hole they've dug themselves.
