Can the Flames play the rest of the season like a top 10 team to sneak into the playoffs?
Thanks for this, I don't think some around here can appreciate how quickly a season can b squandered.

"Really? It's only been six games..."

Uh, yeah. In today's NHL with parity as it is you can't afford to be working out the bugs in your system through the first month of the season. By then you may already be out of the picture. The Flames are hurtling out of it.
