Love the win, but that was some low event hockey. Huby put this team on his shoulders offensively. Weegar with probably his best game of the season. Wolf was solid.
Hanley is going to have some bruises after this one.

They did not want to lose this game. Go Flames. I appreciate the effort.

Next five opponents win % is 0.378. More to come!

Yeah, finally finished watching a Flames game without screaming "Goddamn Weegar" at my TV.

Parekh and Pachal were bad together.. I cannot wait till we find an actual partner for Parekh.. Thinking someone like Weegar.

Wins are fun. Weegar and Huberdeau had a good game.

Anyone who can possibly believe that players on a team learn something from constant losing is nuts IMO.
Just to really fool you, I think it would be splendid if the Flames made the playoffs (and no, I don’t think that will happen…but it would be fun to see Team Tank lose their collective minds….).

I thought Pachal was decent. He’s been super physical since he’s been back in the lineup.

Flames are .500 since the point many of us said the schedule is more normal...they are unlucky not to be better over that stretch despite 4 of 5 on the road IMO.
There will be some Pokemon faces but the Flames are better than their record I think and we will start to see it climb.

Winning is fun and I’m pretty sure it’s objectively more fun than losing.
I think it’s totally fine to recognize the potential benefit to coming dead last and still 100% enjoying every win. The people who struggle to enjoy a win are just being weirdos.

Ya it seems unlikely to say the least but the playoffs would be great, obviously. Most fans want their team to make the playoffs and I am in that category.

Even the worst teams win 30 games a year.

They're now on pace to tie San Jose's record from two seasons ago... the worst 82 game season since the introduction of the shootout.

There are a lot of really bad teams in the league.
I think the McKenna race will be just as hard as the race for first overall.

With a bit of a losing streak the Sharks could be on pace to tie their own record two seasons later. With a roster of young players steeped in losing as a way of doing business it could be possible for them to tie that record.
