Ya I definitely have lost interest in the Flames over the years.
This team I am watching has no identity. There is no passion or intensity to their game.
I also just don't care about hockey as much anymore. The Canadian market is over saturated with hockey coverage, it has gotten to become too much. Last night sportsnet was showing the junior players vs. Russia, then there's pointless Spengler cup coverage, the World Juniors, the IIHF World Hockey Championship, the World Cup of Hockey, the Memorial Cup, then nationally televised pre-season hockey games, to finally the NHL regular season and the marathon that is the NHL playoffs. It's too much. I cannot sustain a heightened interest in hockey if it's all I see or hear about. I like that in baseball and football there are long off seasons, this helps maintain my interest! I never miss hockey because it's always there.
