Or, given the history we’ve seen from this team and how the underperform every year, in a parallel universe where the flames played Nashville they’d be down 2-1 to them too while Colorado beat the wheels of a clearly inferior Dallas team and we all lamented not playing them. Like I get what you’re saying, Nashville looks awful, but we’ve seen this movie too many times for me to think any different. It happens almost every year. The flames have a really bad habit of making teams look way better than they are. 2017 ducks destroyed them, then had a competitive series against the oilers right after that could have gone either way. 2019 Colorado was on the rise for sure, but again they absolutely wrecked us and then lost a close series to San Jose. It happens so much that the flames have actually conditioned some fans to think that being a top seed and losing and getting outplayed by bottom seeds is normal and to be expected, or that we’re just having bad luck. Dallas deserved to win last night, just like game 2. They bullied us, their goalie was better and their forwards are better. I agree with Cecil saying this team is the hot chick you try to convince yourself that things will work out with when deep down you know that’s not true, I was thinking that last night it’s the perfect analogy lol.
