So, not on the Nation Network's expense (though I wish Drance and company would have gotten me a gift), I went down to Phoenix for my birthday. Who wants to spend their birthday in cold ol' Edmonton anyway?
With two hockey games in two days it was the most ideal way to turn 27. The only thing better than that could be if the Flames actually strung together more than two good games consecutively but such is life. Now we live in the darkest timeline with limited glimmers of hope (see: the win over Dallas).
PHOENIX, THANKS FOR THE WEEKEND
I had zero expectations of what to expect for both the Flames and Senators games but I was pleasantly surprised with everything.
