They COULD have made it. Easily

It's no longer a question of skill but output

The effort isn't there any more. And that's just sad

And when thats the case, it deserves boos and empty seats

Teams out of it since Christmas have played with more pride than these guys

I’m still confident that playoff hockey will be played at the Dome this year.

I wanted to do. But then they laid a giant turd right in from my very eyes in my first in person game in 6 years.

Anything can happen, even though they have not shown it so far this year the roster does have the talent to go on a big heater.

Team was absolutely embarrassed last game and will use that to go on a heater straight to the finals.

I think that is the start of something good last night. Keep it rolling tonight against Minny boys!

Hopefully Markstrom is shaking off the anticipated new baby nerves and becomes somewhat of the goalie we saw last season.

I heard Marktrom and his wife waited until birth to find out the gender. It came out a boy and now he's fired up.

Takes a special kind of judgement passer to come into a topic titled to reflect it's about being a fan with unrealistic expectations and #### on everyone anyway!

You must be a lot of fun at house parties!

Are you the guy that yells out "that can't happen" in Bruce Willis movies?

Last night was the first night where I could say we had some puck luck, namely on the Ritchie goal and the sequence that happened for the last goal of the game to grab us the win against Dallas.

Keep playing like this, and we won't need to rely on bounces to win.

The win against Dallas was the start of a 35 game winning streak!

Definitely some puck luck on the Lindy goal too.

Yeah felt like for weeks we couldn't so much as buy a fruitful bounce, and last night several of them went in.

Winnipeg has only won 2 of their past 10 and is only 4 points ahead of Calgary. Calgary has 1 more game played. The Flames play the Jets on April 5.

I wonder if that game will be a must-win, or it will be meaningless by then.

My girlfriend says I need to be more positive. So I’m turning over a new leaf.

We are winning the cup this year. End of story.
