You make it sound like that without a few lucky breaks by the Avs, the Flames would have won the series with ease.

The Flames won the first game, why then didn't that momentum carry over to the next game, when Calgary was largely outplayed?
Calgary was not “largely outplayed” in Game 2. As for momentum? Who knows. If it was as simple as turning on a switch there would never be any surprise outcomes.

I continue to maintain that people read way too much into a four game stretch that occurred in the playoffs. The Flames did not lose because of a skill deficiency or some uncorrectable flaw in the roster. It was very much about timing and momentum.
