Right it was all Elliot and the Refs.
I don't know what else you say about a team that clearly has the talent to compete with the best but have only won 6 games since their winning streak ended 16 games ago.
Being on the losing end of all of these close games is exactly what a lack of resolve is.

The thing is - even when we faltered, we still do not give up good scoring chances. As Gully put it, we weren't under siege.
We didn't fold. We gave the Ducks next to nothing of quality, and they still scored 4 straight.
I don't get why people want to blow this up into something that it's not. The Flames dominated, and the Flames lost because of goaltending.
It's staring everyone right in the face, and for whatever reason people are trying to create a problem that doesn't exist.
Goaltending can be fixed. No half measures. Get a top tier goalie. If we had one right now, we'd be up in this series 2-1 if not 3-0.
