I agree. If they continue to play the way they have the last few games, the wins will come.

Could you imagine living in Florida year round with a well paid job, enjoying the weather and going to the rink to watch hockey. I can't think of really anything better. *Re-thinks life & choices*
I suppose the only issue would be having to live in the US which I wouldn't be fond of

This is a terrific breakdown.

Edged out an A on my history midterm, somehow. Seriously, I'm at a loss. So let's hope the Lightning join me tonight in that regard -- GFG!

Some day Puerto Vallarta will get an NHL team - and all will be right with the world.

And there are micro and macro forces at work here.
The recent spotty schedule has probably done a huge amount of damage to timing and feel for both goaltenders, lines, special teams units and the team as a whole
While said break has also recharged the batteries and eliminated long term injuries etc.
When the timing and feel come back the bodies will be ready to go on a pretty good rip.

This will be an interesting benchmark. Last time they played it was very even, how do they stack up this time around? I feel like though they have arguably outplayed the opposition since the break they haven’t had ‘it’ however you define that.

Well, hopefully we can get a win tonight. We're going to the game, so watch out for four of us crazy Flames fans at Amelie Arena cheering when the boys win!

I wonder if we'll hear a whistling sound when he skates with his mouth open?

Well to be fair since most goals come from mistakes, there usually is a goat.

Flames just need to bury their chances...they have dominated during most of this "slump" just no finish
