Obviously because we have an abundance of scoring. Just when you think GG's bad decisions were a thing of the past. What is the best way to make up Matty's lost offense...simple ....sit another player who represents 6% of the team's goals.

Which is the precise totally accurate definition of "abortion".

Sorry I upset some of you with my choice of words. It's great that you've been enjoying this incredibly mediocre season. You must have really enjoyed the last 27 years where the team failed to meet expectations in about 25 of them.

People could learn a lot from a guy like you. Take zero enjoyment from something, sign in to a site to discuss it further wasting your own time, and mock others for taking enjoyment in something that's supposed to be fun.
You must be great at parties.

Maybe don't give up until they are mathematically eliminated then. Some people can be fans of the team and not enjoy mediocrity. Don't you dare suggest that because we haven't given up like you that we enjoy the team losing or not living up to its potential. We've just chosen to keep the flag up until sundown instead of rushing off at 3:30 to pick up your new ear drops.

In a way I'm enjoying this last stretch of the season. No doubt I'd rather the Flames were home and cooled in the playoffs, but the tension is running high right now and that makes for good sport.
Pretty stoked for the game tomorrow night.

The way I look at it, I'll cheer for them to run the table, win all the games remaining, and if it's not enough, so be it. I still enjoy the winning streak to end the season.

The season so far is quite a disappointment. I’d go with letdown vs. abortion personally.
In any case, it’s not over yet and things would look a little brighter with a regulation win tomorrow night.

I was thinking the same thing at the game on Tuesday. At least we are playing meaningful games in mid March.

It's amazing how much more palatable that statement is. It's almost as if the language we use should provide the appropriate description of the situation.
Basically, we don't need to resort to hyperbole to make a point or to accurately represent the situation.

I assume Strange Brew meant ‘abhorration,’ but could be wrong.

Oh, I chose that word carefully. GG went to a back alley, took out his coat hanger, and terminated this season before it ever had a chance.

If a party is as lame as this season has been, then the prudent move is to call a cab and go home. But if you're having fun, by all means, be the last to stumble out the door at 4AM if it pleases you.

LAW 10
You can die from someone else's misery—emotional states are as infectious as diseases. You may feel you are helping the drowning man but you are only precipitating your own disaster. The unfortunate sometimes draw misfortune on themselves; they will also draw it on you. Associate with the happy and fortunate instead.

From the Oxford Dictionary:
Abhorration - Extreme loathing or disgust. Also as a count noun: an object of disgust; an abomination
I am not yet at extreme loathing. Disgust - mildly on occasion I suppose, but more at the overall results of the franchise and not just this year.

Except in your brilliant analogy, going home is forgetting about it and finding something better to do with your time. Not driving home and going to a forum to dwell on the party and mock others for attending it every day.
You're a complete wet blanket. I think you've gotten the point across you don't care. Why continue to come back here?
