“This is the sound that comes up in my head when I think about a fail. Like the Mets losing a ballgame to the Phillies 10-0.”

On a day where the NHL managed to mess up an outdoor game by failing to account for the possibility of a “sun issue,” the Calgary Flames somehow put forth an even worse performance.
