Just not looking forward to moving to 9th instead of 7th.

There is nothing more Flames like then to win the meaningless games at the end of the season that only serve to hurt their draft odds.

Yup. Lose when they need to win against bad teams and win when they need to lose. Hard to get excited about a win at this point of the season.

Is there anything less useful than finishing exactly .500?

Sink or swim, just please commit to one!

They've been losing a lot more than they have been winning FYI

I am well aware. It doesn’t matter though. They were firmly drafting 8th and are now on the verge of dropping to 9th or 10th. The consensus seems to be there is a drop off after the top 8 in the upcoming draft. I would like to see them draft as high as possible at this point so winning games like this against a team you are directly competing with for a top 7 pick is pointless.

Hmmmmmmm
So, many people upset about an effort leading to a possible win. Don’t worry, there’s a good chance there will be 40 to 45 losses a year to be happy about for the next 10 years or so.
