What happened

The road trip opened with a 6-2 win in Vegas, loud enough that one fan screamed "THERE'S YER ANSWER VEGAS!!!! FUCK YOU CARTER HART" into the void and meant it. Then Colorado happened. A 6-3 loss there was the hinge of the week, with Kadri doing Kadri things and someone offering to "take the penalty" for the privilege of erasing him. The 5-4 loss in Utah the next night only confirmed the mood: "Like what the actual fuck was that." Misery climbed from 51 to 66. Vegas feels very far away now.
