Not all hope is lost. You have a rallying point in Smith and Bennett providing the spark.
Things are not ideal, but the Flames have the horses. Each of those players need to reflect deeply on what they want to achieve. The talent is there, they need to dig deep for the desire to win. I’d roll with the same lineup. You ride or die with your best lineup.
It’s a cliche saying, but it’s gut check time. Game 4 will show us what these players are made of. They showed flashes of it in 2017, but were let down by abysmal goaltending.
