Quiet... too quiet.
Well, well... I sincerely thought before the playoffs that the Flames-Ducks series would be the first one that was over, but with Buffalo and Carolina both winning tonight, it's gonna be the last.
I'm starting to get a little edgy, and at the bottom of it all is this: I'm not ready for the season to be over. When the Hockey God appeared to me in a vision and told me to start this site with Sacamano, I don't think it was so it could end with a 7-game loss to the Anaheim Mighty Ducks and a 4-game sweep by the San Jose Sharks. I think it was for the showdown, man.
The Wednesday night forecast for the Red Mile is "Clear. Wind north 20 km/h becoming light in the evening. Low minus 2." Perfectly amenable for a brief but spirited celebration, under the expectation of more to come.

puYup. The best show on t.v, Mirtle.
And I suspect Fenwick is trying to say that if the Flames lose, the Oil will be sweeped in four by the Sharks. He's just lashing out in fear.
Heh, as I recall, Edmonton fared not too badly against SJ this season, even after the arrival of Saint Joe.
I think the Flames are going to come out tonight, get a goal early, and just when Anaheim pulls the momentum and looks ready to equalize, Lombardi or someone like that is going to score a dagger early in the third period. Add an empty-netter with about 45 seconds left. 3-0 Flames.
I bet Flames fans would give anything to have Gelinas, or even Conroy back on the team for tonight's game. They have a severe lack of anyone stepping up.
But hey, maybe tonight one Flamer will go through the "Hemsky transformation" and score 2 beautiful goals to win the game, at which point, all Flamer fans will cheer and say to each other "I was just kidding when I said that he sucked."
"I was just kidding when I said that he sucked."
I believe the actual quote from Oiler fans was, "That's the type of production we should be getting from a guy who outscored every single player from our main rival this year by 10 points."
Note: Samsonov with an assist on both the game tying and game winning goal in the series clinching game. Wonder if Lundmark's gonna dress tonight?

Had it just about right - just not the team. The Battle of Alberta awaits another year, as the top four teams in the West are gone.
