That was one hell of an up and down game emotionally to sit through. The fact that the Flames are right on the verge between rounding back into form and plummeting to the leagues worst makes it so much more impactful.
With each shift and with each goal the season sways between apathy and sadness to excitement and hope. The human body isn't meant to handle such insane swings like this. Every pass, every penalty, every blocked shot and missed assignment puts the team and the season on a crux. If the Flames some how manage to claw their way back into this thing, with injuries to key players and league worst stats, they will truly be the find a way Flames. Tonight was a night that perfectly encapsulated the past 2 seasons and the emotional rollercoaster that is the Flames.
