This loss stings a bit, but it is at least a point in a very difficult matchup and the team played alright. My hope is that they use this loss as a rallying point, because right now it's time to win the next five games. We have Buffalo, Ottawa, Islanders, Oilers and Sharks coming up, and there are absolutely zero excuses for this team if they don't take advantage of this chance to get back into the race. After that it's Vegas coming up, but then there's another string of highly winnable games including all the California teams. Just looking at the remaining schedule it should be very doable to go with a record of 10-5 or even 11-4 the rest of the way. We have been playing poorly and lucked out for far too long, so it's about damn time to get your crap together and go on a serious run right now Flames! JUST GET IT DONE!
