If anything, I think this team seizes up when one of the goalies lets in a weak goal. Because it happens so frequently.

After that 2nd Rags goal, the Flames seemed to be afraid to let any shots through to the net. It's like they revert to a "prevent defence" because they can't rely on their goalies to make key saves. At least, that's how it looks at times...

For me, playoffs aren't as important as continued growth as a team. Their play of late has improved--better goaltending at key moments would only help increase a young team's confidence and progress.
