Chicago is a powerhouse, but we match up way better. Elliott beat them with the Blues last season. The Hawks play more of a speed/skating game which suits the Flames style much better.
Flames haven't won in Anaheim in over 14 years. Flames have won at the United Center in 3 of the past 4 seasons. I know exactly who I prefer to play in round 1.

I totally agree. Hence why I won't be so angry if this California road trip goes south (no PUN intended).
Although I also want them to end the season on a high note.
(sigh)
Then again...how f-ing sweet would it be to beat the Ducks in the 1st round?! Hey, ya never know...
