1) I'll watch a few games in the next two rounds. I usually watch most or all of the finals.
2) Virtually guaranteed to tune in for almost every game next year.
3) Die hard.
4) I will be a Flames fan forever. There is almost nothing that would make me switch.
5) I think the sport is in a great place, COVID-19 not withstanding. I am not a strict traditionalist and I think there are ways to improve the game, but I don't think there are any major outstanding issues. I do think we are approaching a point where we need to have a serious discussion about violence, its place in the game, and the long term health of players. I'm not sure exactly where I come down on it but I could would not be surprised to see fighting and head contact punished more severely in the future.
