Woe is the Flames

I have given up hope that my hometown team will make any kind of run in the playoffs this year. They are, as I write, trailing in the third period of the third game, down 2 already. It is time to turn our sights to some of the more interesting series like the Predators and San Jose (the body count has been high in that one)and Vancouver Dallas. Luongo and Turco are making that an old time goalie battle that I makes it almost impossible to choose who to cheer for. Regardless, the Flames are headed for the golf course and their coach Jim Playfair will be heading for the unemployment line.
