Well . . . Our Flames might not hit 80 pts as a team this season . . . we might not have ourselves a Thirt- heck twenty goal scorer on our squad come April . . . It's likely we won't have anyone stand on his head and amass 50 pts over the course of the year . . . Shit, we might be the most overpaid, underperforming, disjointed, unininteresting and unininspired collection of individuals that have ever donned the Flaming C since day 1 in Cowtown . . . . BUT . . . BUUUT . . . There's a silver lining to this season . . .
it might be a better season than oh the next 6 or 7 ones to come
So enjoy the ride folks, enjoy the good times. Enjoy when the refs miss an offside on us and then that a goal doesn't get reviewed and called back because there wasn't one to begin with. Enjoy the odd shot on net, the occasional save, the occasional pass-shot-goals by you know who, our remaining "marquee" centre's market value crash, Mr and Mrs mugoo behind our bench, or the times when McDinglberry in Edmonchuck stumbles on the ice (have a good guffaw over it) . . . Cuz next season could be worse than this one. And the next worse than that one and, well, yeah. Silver linings!
Hoping we win, if we do I'll guess 3-2.
Go Flams!
