I still have no doubt they will be a playoff team, just not sure what to expect beyond that.
Carolina is reeling a little, unable to score lately, but that also makes them desperate. Not sure if it's an ideal opponent or not.
A win today would definitely improve everyone's mood, and it would set themselves up well for upcoming home games to end the trip on a positive note. I know they're probably getting a little tired on this long trip, so here Flames...take my energy!!!

Considering the duration of the trip, and the quality of the teams they played against, if Flames manage to pull a win today, the trip should be considered successful. I believe they would've gotten 7 points out of 12. That's okay in my books.
