The washington game was played very well. It was probably the best game of the season.
But, caveat - the flames beat a 0.500 team on the second night of their back-to-back
And, caveat - washington was icing their backup goalie
And caveat - the PP was not good
And caveat - the win required a 0.970 save percentage by Smith
And caveat - all the scoring was generated by the first line
And caveat - the fourth line still averaged 10 minutes of ice time
So, yeah...green shoots. But lol if you're getting excited.
