Fans freak out after season ends with Flames blowing 3-0 lead

Make Shark Club your home for the playoffs! With Happy Hour twice daily, and all-night Happy Hour on Fridays, there’s no better place to live the playoff experience.

And just like that, the Calgary Flames’ season is over.

Calgary jumped out to an early 3-0 lead against the Dallas Stars in a do-or-die game on Thursday night before things went up in, yes, flames, after allowing six unanswered goals.

Fans took to social media after the game to express their sadness and frustration in what might be the best way to deal with these kinds of losses: GIFs and memes.

After a tough five-game defeat at the hands of the Colorado Avalanche in the first round of the 2019 NHL playoffs, this is yet another tough series loss for the Flames who haven’t advanced past the first round since 2015.

It’s going to be a long offseason for Flames fans and this one is going to be tough to forget.
