The Flame stat is irrelevant because the games span over 2 generations of the team, and who pays attention to game 2s anyway.
The Canuck one was real, as they had at least a half dozen guys in their room that have felt those losses, and likely have some dread in their heads.
The finish series stuff going back 11 years won't effect anything.
The team is young and every new experience is exactly that.

Yep, this team has the luxury of having a fresh start. However, if they manage to blow the next 3 games, then I think it starts to loom over them in years to come that they haven't been able to win or finish off a series in 12+ years.
So better make sure we finish it off in the next couple games and exorcise all those demons.
