This Calgary Flames team has seemingly forgotten how to quit.
10 days ago, on the heels of a 4-2 Flames loss to the Ottawa Senators, I declared:
Neither the Flames nor the Montreal Canadiens seem at all intent on locking down the fourth and final playoff spot in the NHL’s North Division. Calgary boasts a 4-6-0 record in its last 10 games; Montreal, 3-7-0.
That said, at this point in the season, that spot is likely out of the Flames’ reach. Calgary sits six points behind Montreal in the standings and has played two more games than their Québécois rivals.
