I really don't think the Flames can beat Anaheim in a 7 game series. They simply don't match up well and will not be able to come close to matching them in a physical game and for whatever reason, their speed and skill game doesn't work against Anaheim.
The Flames have a solid team, but look below average against the Ducks for whatever reason.
Other than a few guys (Ferland, Engelland, Bennett and a couple others), the rest of the guys did not want anything to do with the rough stuff.
Asking this roster to play that kind of game is a classic square peg in a round hole ...
