Thank you.
Glad I'm not the only one on this board that sees it as a probably reality. All the betting sites have them a top 2 or 3 team, all media (whether national, local, beat, blog) has them as one of the favorites, moneypuck.com Power Rankings had them as one of the top teams last year. Let's just avoid all data.
We got saved by the hockey gods that they didn't win the Cup last year. Yes - they got a lot of things to go their way. Well so did Florida and so does every team that wins the Cup. Instead of taking a humbled approach, these same posters are acting like we won the Cup ourselves by knocking out the Oilers. Should be thankful we got saved by the Panthers. No attitude of gratitude whatsoever.
As long as Oilers have McDavid and Draisaitl, they have a kick at the can and that's no good for Flames fans. It seems we're going to have to endure this for another decade. Laugh all you want at what might happen in a few years but this gives me no peace.
