"I thought the first went well, but when they made it 2-0, we didn't have any fight left."

| (MySportsbook) - It's amazing how quickly things can go downhill in professional sports. In early January, the Calgary Flames were riding a three- game winning streak and seemed to be ready to make 2003 a banner year. Of course, the Flames' dreams of a postseason run went up in smoke in mere moments. A 1-0 loss to Ottawa on January 9 sent Calgary into a tailspin that hasn't stopped yet. Calgary has posted just a 4-11-3-1 mark ever since, slipping into dead last in the Northwest Division with 49 points. The |

"We're getting a balanced attack offensively," Murray said, "and if we can continue that, then we feel like we can win every game." WHAT'S AHEAD The Predators will close a six-game homestand on Thursday against the Calgary Flames before a two-game road trip with stops in Ottawa and Toronto. |
