Nah bro, it matters to me.
There's nothing like those playoff game day rituals and the anticipation.
The pundits discounting the Flames (as they always do) and rallying around that.
Knowing in the pit of your stomach it's likely we get crushed, but that crazy things can also happen and there's always that chance.
The smell of spring in the air and hockey to look forward to. The beer flowing, jerseys on the streets and flags on the cars.
Even with just a fool's hope, that's still what it's all about.
Time is just moving faster these days and we don't get NEARLY enough of that playoff fever around the city any more (except that of our neighboring rivals, which is repulsive).
Speak for yourself but I can assure you it isn't just management who wants playoffs.
