Yeah, while getting out played, out shot, out chanced and out classed.
Talk about lowered expectations.
I'm glad they got the points, but good lord this team is just really pathetic. There is just no chance IMO that they could realistically contend for a cup the way they are built/coached.

Agreed.
I'm pretty numb to it all. Yes I was excited for the Bread goal, but I know what to expect with this team so I wasn't counting my chickens at that point. And was exactly right not to. It's sad that I felt that last minute squandering coming from a mile away. That should not be normal, yet is.
I'm at the point where I look at how they come through at the most important times in a game more so than the moral victories based on what amount of points were collected in a specific time window or opponent that may allow us to live with ourselves for another day.
The day I'll be excited and invested on a core level is the day when the Flames step up at that 11th hour, show guts and courage, and sink the dagger on a good team, without the help of ten bell desperation saves from their goalie.
