This game to me is the perfect metaphor for last season vs. this season.
Blue Jackets get 2 goals in the first 10 minutes and the Flames get 2 goals in the final 10 minutes then win it in OT.
The BJs are last years Flames team. They came out and started the season great, then just sat on their (division) lead as teams amped up and made the push for OT (playoffs) and then look lost out there as they lose
The Flames last night were this years team. They didn't come out strong, played hockey good enough to stay in the game (playoff race) and then poured it on for the last 10 minutes (stretch run) to force OT (a playoff spot) AND THEN WON OT (THE STANLEY CUP)
weird metaphor to type up but I did what I could.
