That is a 10/10 for those instances. It's fun to debate, the team was good, s*&t happens and sports are sports. We move on.
It was mildly frustrating to see the amount of recent former Flames playing in the Olympics. Imagine what Roman Cervenka could have been.

None of the former Flames outside of Cervenka did much. Markstrom was Markstrom. Rasmus sat. Tkachuk had 6 points somewhere but was a non-factor. So was Bennett, so was Lindholm, so was Hanifin. Reider was a bit player. Berra was a backup. Ruzicka surprisingly enough had 2 goals and 3 assists.
