The undertone that the Oilers are doing such a good job that they passed the Flames in a race that the Flames should be winning. As been proven, it's not even clear that the Oilers have even passed the Flames at this point, but was should be clear is that the Oilers were given a 5 year head start on this race along with a whole bunch of steroids and blood doping that the Flames haven't has access to, yet somehow at best the Oilers are only keeping pace with us..............That's the story, not that the Oilers have miraculously caught the Flames or that the Flames have fallen from grace.

No kidding. That is so grating to me. Like, #### you Spector you arrogant piece of garbage. The Oilers have been rebuilding for a bloody decade already and they should have been where they are this season, 5 or 6 seasons ago.
On the flip side, the Flames rebuild is exactly where it should be.
Yet that doosh nozzle is going to act like they are "out-rebuilding" us? get a grip buddy and pull your head out before you suffocate.
