Are the Flames any different this Season?

The Calgary Flames roared out to a 4-0 start this season, tying the franchise record for the best start to a season. They topped the NHL standings a few games into the new season, but surely everyone knew that it wouldn't last. While some fans may have fooled themselves into believing that this fast start meant that things for the club had completely turned around, it is now evident that this is not the case. The team that held so much promise after the lock-out, after being named by Sports Illustrated as "most likely to win the Stanley Cup" in 2006, is still exactly where they've been for the past 4 seasons. Though they've picked up some big name players in the past few years, the Flames still have problems putting the puck in the net, they still take stupid penalties at the worst possible times and they still can't hold a lead. In short, they're one of the most frustrating teams for their fans to watch.Sure, the Flames have shown that they can make it...
