I have nothing against someone going and living their best life. The Flames look bad out of all this, but not the guys who got traded away. Also, I find the joy in sports is more about witnessing and cheering on excellence, and tribalism doesn't do a lot for me, especially when it's basically tribalism built around what is just a commercial brand.
I was thinking about this today; we are emotionally invested in decisions we can't control, and it just seems that the Flames don't get many things right.

Just saw the Barkov goal, holy ####?!?! Nobody saying anything about it here? The best of the year, going between the legs and back?!?! Never seen that before.

Nice goal for sure. It's been done in the shootout plenty of times for sure that I can recall.
Here's Giroux doing it in OT 5 years ago:

We’re preoccupied with Bearcat Murray’s medical bag

When the shots were 16-1 Carolina but only a 1-0 lead, that was a huge win for the Panthers. Now they're almost back to next-goal-wins territory, where they thrive.

Shootouts are a different game but this one by Giroux is really good too, didn't remember it but I think I saw it live now that you posted it. Barkov does take it much further back though, looks even better. So good!
