I dunno, this covid thing made me miss hockey but I also came to the realization that putting so much emotional attachment to the sport and this team just is not worth it any longer.

Yeah this is basically me. I still watch, but if it's some early 5:00pm start, no way in heck am I skipping my sunset walk along the Bow to catch the 1st period of those duds soiling themselves..especially the way they start games. I'll catch the last 2 periods when I'm back home.
Agreed with the second part too. It was actually the New Orleans Saints' annual heartwrenching playoff losses that taught me to separate myself fairly well emotionally while still being a fan...but it's carried over to the Flames' dumpster fire season nicely.
