I honestly think the Flames can beat any of these teams. We've beaten all of them this year, sometimes very convincingly, except Edmonton. And I don't fear the Oilers at all, sure they've beaten us four straight but not because they're miles ahead of us. The Flames could take four straight off them in a playoff series just as easily as they did to us if we get hot again.
I like the combination the Flames have of playoff-seasoned vets, talented core, and guys like Tkachuk and Ferland who can throw the other teams' top players off their game (like Chicago did to us last time we faced them in the playoffs).
