Flames Motto - “The Time Is Now”

from Eric Duhatschek of the Globe and Mail (Monday edition),
The mood was, in a word, defiant — probably a good thing for the Calgary Flames.
Down 2-0 in their Western Conference playoff series to the Chicago Blackhawks and facing long statistical odds to get back in the series, the Flames players rhymed off the many reasons for optimism yesterday, some of them even plausible.
The games have been close, the difference between the two teams comparatively small. There were none of the glassy-eyed stares to be found in the Flames’ dressing room, none of the helpless expressions that accompany a team that knows it is hopelessly overmatched in a series.
