You have to wonder if the Flames players notice and think "well they don't get fired up either way, so I don't really give a crap."

Place was pretty quiet until Oilers finally scored their first and got energy into their game and the place.
Flames need to fed energy into the crowd first. We know how loud and excited it can get in there in the playoffs, so the crowd is fully capable of it. But their play at home hasn't inspired for the roof to be blown off on regular occasion.
And to be fair, this is the regular season where the expectations is playoffs at the minimum. Mix in a corporate culture, and the dome energy isn't gonna be that high unless the Flames are having a great game on the goal sheet.
