Now it feels like the NHL playoffs... thanks to the Canucks and Flames. My heart says Calgary, but my head says, "wait a minute, I'm in Denver, and a Vancouver win means the Avs would play the Red Wings next."
In any case, methinks the Flames would have been better off losing that game 4-0, or even 4-3. Coming up on the wrong end of triple-OT, especially at home, can be a back-breaker.
And to all who like to gripe about the low-scoring, overly obstructed, trap-happy NHL -- could be worse, how 'bout a 72-71 NBA playoff game?
