Conspiracy theory - Flames owners saw the potential to gain cash from another playoff game and asked the team to go gently on the Nucks, let them win but not by much.Come home and destroy them
(Not really)
Onto the real world, I would rather they had a bad game in game 5 in Vancouver with a 3-1 series lead than a game 7 back in Vancouver. No biggie, we lost one and have room to do so. Come home, get back to Flames hockey and move onto the next round after a win on Saturday.
