No offense but you're typing like you are ignorant to that very fact.

Win or Lose, something about this playoff run brings alot of nostalgia from the '04 run.

Which have me looking up this song which they played when they returned the season after

Regardless of this series if we win or lose. Do you think their will be a media day where the players talk to the media about the future, offseason, injuries they dealt with. Something like the Canucks did when we eliminated them.

I say have him skate with the team during warm-up. It will be a nice boost for the team. Win or lose, Gio is part of this game!

Yeah, there's always one after the season.

I don't care if they win. Best year of Flames hockey in a decade, a cap floor team nearly makes it to the conference finals without the best player and 2/3 of the top line are injured. Next year we'll be a force, hopefully there will be referees next year to officiate a game or two.

Thankfully, a positive thread

Anaheim actually had more come from behind victories than we did, and no one was saying that was unsustainable.

We can do this. I believe.

Bob Hartley's message to the team was, "shock the hockey world"

The way this team has gone all year I would not be shocked if they came back.

No matter what this has been the best season since 2004. The commitment to play the same way and outwork teams all the time has given us one of the most entertaining products in the league.

If they can't get past the ducks the 15th pick, 3 2nd rounders, 2 3rd rounders, and a ton of cap space in an offseason where the cap is not expected to rise much. Gaudreau, Monahan, and Bennett will all be star players in the future.

Was really hopeful they'd win last night, lose game 5 in Anaheim, win with back against the wall in Game 6, then crush game 7 and the Anaheim curse.

Wasn't meant to be, oh well. I guess we'll have to move up the timeline on the curse-ender.

I really like Calgary's chances if they can decisively win tomorrow. Not giving up hope yet!

Agree 100%, crush the curse tomorrow and bring it back home. Like Backland said, there is no way they are going to lose at home!

Yesterday was unfortunate, 2 rookie mistakes plus incompetent reffing, I truly believe they can do it.

Go Flames Go

The simple truth is, it is decidedly unlikely we beat the Ducks three games in a row - two in Anaheim. No sense trying to or worrying about it.

Just play tomorrow. Extract a toll. Try to beat the Ducks in game 5. Make them earn every step. And, if somehow we end up in a game six, worry about that then.

When you say there is no sense trying, what do you mean by that?

Probably just that there's no point in setting out to win 3 games in a row now.

Go out and play balls to the wall tomorrow, and if you win... worry about Game 6.

they have to take it 1 game at a time now just win the next game. I want to count them out but they have never quit on us fans so we can't quit believing in them they can do this.

This team has already proven multiple times that it can deliver under pressure. I still Boblieve. That said, was really hoping we'd pull out a second win at home -- tying up the series would have placed a lot of pressure on Anaheim and would have given them some serious doubts.

While I don't expect the Flames to win 3 in a row and take the series, I fully expect them to go out guns blazing and balls to the wall. There's nothing left to lose and I feel they'll leave it all out there.

Regardless what happens tomorrow, this season has been a resounding success. I haven't been this proud of the team since 89

This is the first time all year that they have faced legitimate elimination. They didn't face it in the regular season and they didn't face it against Vancouver.

Lets see if they live up to the million monikers that have been bestowed upon them.
