If the Flames want to beat the ducks they have to do it with speed and smart systems play, not gooning it up like they tried the last couple against Anaheim. I also feel like Gibson is more capable of stealing a series than Crawford is, so for what it's worth I hope we face Chicago. Also the ducks getting points in 10 straight or whatever puts them in a pretty confident position heading into the post season.

Bieksa is a veteran who plays a physical game and Ferland got in his head bigtime in 2015.
Crawford has 2 rings Gibson has proven nothing.
I think it is important that the Flames skilled guys stick to the system and not get caught up in it but Tkachuk, Bennett, Ferland, Engellend, Bouma should be mixing it up
