Odds are this Flames team would have allowed a tying goal, then hit a few posts in overtime before losing.

The Flames have so much work to do. It starts with getting guys who want to win and hate to lose.

That being said, watching a team like Tampa play tells you a lot about what the Flames are missing.

They are a bunch of cheaters but they have built a culture of winning over the past number of years. They remind me of the Stamps in CFL - where it's almost just expected for the team to win.

And just like the Stamps.. little hardware to show for it so far. But they still win a lot more games than they lose.
This level of bitterness can’t be healthy.
