Yeah, but people have a memory longer than a single loss. It's the build up of a long stretch of poor hockey that get people "overly negative".
There is an odd obsession amongst a subset of posters here about showing no emotion towards their sports team. Like, watch 82 games a season and get no emotional ups and downs from it? Or try hard to present a front that you don't? You're all so stoic. It's ####ing weird.

Rinse and repeat.

Just like the Kings winning in 2012. "See! Just get in an anything can happen!" Conveniently ignoring that no Flames team has had that level of heart since 2004.
