It happens to every team over the course of a season. I just don't get why some fans are freaking out over it - do you really think this Flames team can play an 82 game season without any slumps? No team can, so expecting a rebuilding team that is relying primarily on goaltending and hard work to do so is ridiculous.
Relax, and enjoy the wins and the chase.

And it was always likely that they'd get pinched when the opposition ramped up their work ethic through the season.
They got past the Q2 bump, the post Xmas bump, but now they are approaching the all star game (not this year) and a month to the deadline and suddenly they look over matched.
