Actually, the CP Negative Nancy brigade was already convinced that the team was worthless in spite of their regular season because Nathan McKinnon activated God mode in the playoffs. You see, a best-of-seven series gives you a much more valid statistical sample of where a team is at than a whole 82-game season. The Flames were an awful horrible hopeless team that year, and only won those 50 games because the real hockey teams all felt sorry for them, yessirree.
