I feel like the Flames are similar to the Hawks in 2009. 2 young budding superstar forwards, solid vets, good defense and nothing to lose.

I just feel the Flames speed is going to be too much for Vancouver to handle. Both teams can roll 4 lines and I don't buy the Canucks have really any more scoring depth than the Flames.
I agree except Kane and Toews had 2 years experience behind them and a way deeper team behind them. The flames do not in anyway have any solid veterans behind them. Stajan is finally getting to the playoffs. But the flames definitely have nothing to lose... Except they are the clear favorited in this series
