Team looked great for most of this game.

Yeah but 'most of the game' isn't the end of the game, where the score actually matters. If the Flames want to even have a chance to win this series (which is
absolutely possible, don't get me wrong), they need to play that 'most of the game' for the next two (if not three) games.
Dead: 4-0 after 4.
Bad: 3-1 after 4.
Good: 2-2 after 4.
Very nice: 3-2 after 4.
But those last two results can only happen is if they can play well the whole game and not have an early meltdown to put them in a hole and not fall apart in the third period. This has killed them in both games thus far.
