What's tough is it's very hard to not feel the ref's are screwing the Flames this year. The two incredibly soft penalties called in OT earlier in the year, this weak call with under three minutes left.
The Oilers game where the Flames were dominating the Oilers and somehiow the Oilers had a 3-1 pp advantage.
Flames are 5th place in 5v5 XGF% and the second most penalized team in the NHL. Currently have a -20 powerplay differential.
It's hard to ignore all of these things put together. Something is wrong.
