I don't think that I've ever wanted a season to end so fast in my life.
I remember from 96 to 02 I just kinda accepted the Flames suck, and that big budget teams would continue winning championships until Kingdom come.
After the 04 Cup run and the subsequent salary cap era, it was nice to watch the Flames be competitive for a few years, and even when they missed a few years in a row post 2009, they still had a chance with Iggy & Kipper.
The past two seasons were the start of the rebuild, so it was exciting to see the direction the team was going. Playoffs were hell of a lot of fun.
But this season just stinks. The Flames should NOT be this bad, and it's frustrating. I wish it was over.
