			Pep, you beat me to it! 
 
 
For those waiting for the latest instalment of The Puppet Chronicles, there IS a video made and waiting to be processed (there appears to be some problems with YouTube this morning). Once it's up, I'll edit it in. 
 
 
Go Flames 
 
edit: Youtube must be dealing with an infestation of gremlins this morning - either that or a billion users are trying to upload at the same time - because this thing ain't moving.

8th place....1 pt ahead of Carolina from being outside looking in.
 
These are not the same Penguins of years past.
 
Still, any time you are against Sid and Malkin, you better be paying attention to details or you will get burned as we saw in October.
 
Much like the Flames their issue is playing good team defense at times.
 
4-3 Flames in OT with Tkachuk breaking his slump and netting the winner.

As crazy as it sounds, I think they’ve been playing better during this losing streak than the 5-6 games prior to the All-star break. Hopefully they capitalize on more chances today.

Yes you're correct.  They have played some good hockey but just didn't score.  Confidence is so streaky but they can build it through details and really it is about rhythm or swagger
