Thinking back on this now my mind immediately goes to Dee Gordon hitting a homerun in the first game after Jose Fernandez died in that boating accident. That was his only home run of the season... it was like it was meant to be.
These are the kinds of things you see so often in sports. Whether it is just a straight up coincidence or not, its why we love sports.
I can't help but feel that the Flames winning, on yet another goal by Martin Gelinas, was what was meant to happen that year. And it was stolen from us.

Just like we were meant to be the first team to beat 4 division champs en route to a cup victory.
It was a team of destiny.
