Don't get me wrong they deserve the break, but they really are crappy to head into on a streak.

A little perspective, the old Flames would have come out flat against Florida after beating TB, the top team in he league. The old Flames would have come out flat in an afternoon game against Carolina. It would have been easy to make excuses missing Monny and having to revise 2 lines. The old Flames would come back from a mandatory 5 day break and suck. Maybe, just maybe the old Flames no longer exist...
