That's not optimistic, its hopeful!

I just think it's pretty unrealistic to believe that history is going to repeat. The Flames run of very good hockey between the blowout loss to the Penguins last year and the all star break was more to do with a handful of players going on career scoring runs for a few months than it was anything to do with a light switch turning on and the team magically playing better.
I still hold out hope that this team can make the playoffs but I also realize this is not the same team that won the conference last season and there's some legitimate issues with the team so to me there's little to be gained from assuming that anything that happened last season is an indicator of what's ahead for this year's edition of the Flames.
