For the rest of the rational fan base - this was a rough loss. You have two games with a late lead, blow both the leads, then lose both the overtime coinflips.
At worst, even with pessimistic expectations we should have won at least 1 of those games. If you do that 100 times we probably win 90 of them. This small sample absolutely bit us.
We will now very much likely lose the series (maybe at best a 15-20% chance we win) but that's why the games are played. Colorado has been the better team and our superior skill hasn't been able to answer their work ethic.

I would be a lot more confident if we weren’t giving up 40-50 shots per game. Half the shots look dangerous as hell too. This is the most unsustainable playoff hockey I’ve ever seen. If it wasn’t for Mike Smith’s spectacular goaltending right now, the Flames would be swept today. If Martin Jones was the Flames goaltender instead, the scores might be 10-2 every game.
If there’s any chance of winning a game again let alone the series, a new game plan must be implemented.
