[Gaskal]

Let's all take a moment to revel in the irony that is grouchy temperamental me starting a bullish positivity thread.

Ok! Moment over!

I had a pretty bad temper tantrum after the OT goal, where I suggested many laughable trades and buyouts and firings in furious texts to friends. I am not beyond blame myself. And I am not putting blame on anyone who is in a down and depressed mood after the game, y'all have a right to be pissed.

But chin up folks! Now is not the time to lambast our team with vitriol! Despite everything that's happened this series, the C of Red needs to be at its loudest and rowdiest. Go Flames Go!

We're not out yet! There's hockey in front of a ridiculously loud C of Red yet to be played!

I'd also like to recognize the diehards that refuse to back down and give up on their team despite them having played this round out badly.

Slanter. Five-hole. browna.
activeStick. VANFLAMESFAN. home_sweet_dome.
killer_carlson. ASP#26525. taxbuster.
Yamer. Vinny01.

And whoever else I may have missed.

Thanks for bringing me back from the brink of endless despair guys. No matter what other posters say you're doing this forum a great credit with your glass half full posts.

Many of the core players here have more to give. There is another gear. They will find this gear. We're stumbling, but not eliminated, not yet.

Let Game 5 at the Dome be the loudest C of Red in recent memory. Let's ####ing go boys and turn the role of choke artists right back in those filthy Avalanche faces when we #### all over them in Game 7.

This is a new series if we win Game 5 at home. Let's ####ing do this y'all. I ain't ready to give up on this season yet.

Nothing like coming back from the brink of elimination to win a series. We must not lose faith until the very end!

Remember folks. Positive, positive, positive. Let's build back up a good vibe for Game 5! Look at me boys, ####in poet without trying. But remember Aragon's words to the one despairing kid in the Two Towers, prior to the Battle for Helm's Deep?


"The men are saying that it is hopeless. That we will not last the night."

"Haleth, son of Hama.... there is always hope."

Always hope. Until the bitter end.
