2004 stings, but our 1989 team should have won more than once.

This is my opinion too.
So many "chokes" and just not coming thru when it mattered in the several years after '89, and for me this is the one that broke me hard as a Flames fan.
I remember just standing there looking at my TV and being completely dumbfounded, and then hollering "Not again!"
It was painful, especially after the OT loss to the Kings in '90, and the OT loss to the Canucks in '94, it was like a painful reality that this team was never going to win the big game again.
