I don't think so.
Look at Anaheim's core contributors, especially on the defense.
3 guys playing 20 minutes a night 23 years old or younger.
Individually, Brodie may be the best player of the 3, but they have 3 to Calgary's 1.
This series is exposing a lot of the weaknesses of this Flames roster. I don't want to sound doom and gloom, because I think Calgary has a puncher's chance to get to the conference final and beyond, but when you see that monster that is the Ducks team clogging up every passing lane and every inch along the boards, it is impressive and humbling.
Big high coming off the Vancouver win, but the Ducks are a real contender, not a pretender and it is showing.
