The one thing that stands out about the Blues is they are a very big team, and play their system very well. I don't know whether that played with Johnny's confidence or not, but he was definitely not playing the way we normally expect him to.
It was obvious in the first part of the game that the Blues really came to play. I think the Flames did well to match their play throughout the game, and for that I was proud of them.
Both goalies played well. Thankfully the "puck luck" finally turned in our favor near the end of the game, which made a slightly boring game more exciting for the fans.
I was disappointed with our performance in OT. It seemed to me we were satisfied with the point and were in no hurry to get the other one.
