Fantastic first 40, not the best last 20 but they held the fort. There will be questions all summer long about what the Jets might have done if healthy, but the Flames deserve credit, especially for a dominant first 40 tonight. Make no mistake.......the Jets were banged up badly. Them the breaks, sorry.
Starting Talbot making Ward look like a genius. Fantastic series.
Won't go through every player, no passengers tonight so pretty happy with everyone, but that 3rd line was hella fun to watch tonight. If they can continue to roll 3 solid lines maybe they can win a round or two, who knows.
Anyways.......fun stuff. Not the same as regular playoffs, but this is better than nothing. Great job Flames, now take that confidence to round 1 and see what happens, you have nothing to lose.
