A dose of positivity: Evaluating the Flames’ standing among bubble teams

Hello, friends.

How’s everyone doing? Sad? Mad? Outright depressed?

January was a bizarre month for the Calgary Flames. The team experienced both their longest winning and (ongoing) losing streaks of the season, the latter being outright bizarre.

The sky, that not two weeks ago looked to be painted by Michelangelo, is now falling.

The Flames have blown leads in six straight games leading to six straight losses. Cushioned only by the fact the first four were in extra time and they extracted a point each, the Flames have toppled from second in the Pacific, to fifth, and out of the playoffs.
