That year the ducks added Friesen and Sean O'Donnell at the deadline. They combined for 3 goals in the series.
The Flames can definitely score goals this year, they are probably as close to the opposite team formulation as that 06 group. The question for me is, can they score ENOUGH goals. Kipper lost that series with a .923 sv%. Would an .896 sv% be enough to sink this roster in the first round? Scary thought.

God bringing up awful memories, that series loss was brutal for my 10 year old self.
