I just can't wrap my head around people thinking that a franchise that hasn't won in Anaheim for so long (and a collection of players that haven't done it in a few years themselves) will all of a sudden turn their fortunes around and win one or more in that building over a span of 2 weeks.
Both teams may spell a first round exit for Calgary, but at least they have the positivity of actually winning in Chicago recently to boost their confidence going into a series. Plus it will most assuredly be less physical so if they do pull off an upset they'll still be healthy enough to make a go of it in round 2.
You want to exercise demons? Do it at the start of a season.
