Win or lose tonight, win or lose the series, the important thing (other than winning) is that the Flames learn what the Canucks never did: in the playoffs you need an extra gear, and when it's really on the line an extra gear after that. The beatings the Flames have taken from Anaheim - who sure look like they have all the gears they need - should serve as an excellent lesson. The Flames only really lose if they fail to learn anything here, and I don't think Hartley will let that happen.
GO FLAMES GO!!!
