When you depend on a younger core, getting rattled is going to happen. When a veteran team like the ducks gets a crack they blow it open and take advantage of it.
Of course I'm angry with the high stick goal. But at the end of the day, you have to take control of your destiny in the playoffs and the Flames didn't do that.

Agreed. And Elliot has been pretty brutal tonight. I really thought he would lock it down after the 2nd Ducks goal, but he's been pretty shaky in this period, especially on that 4th goal.
Flames just need regroup and settle themselves down during the intermission. They've been the better team for 50 minutes tonight, and they can still win this as long as they smarten up and keep throwing pucks on net. And dammit, they need to use their speed to their advantage. After the 4-3 goal they started to play too tentative and it cost them.
