It's an unpopular opinion because we always assume that the Flames falter and don't try to play hard enough to win, but what I watched in our series was Dallas taking their game to the next level. The Flames were playing a very strong style of game and Dallas was forced to improve their effort and systems across the board. Maybe the Flames don't have that level, or maybe they did reach their highest level of competitiveness, and Dallas was just that much better, I don't know.
What I do know is Dallas feels really good about their game and are playing the way a team needs to in order to win in the playoffs. Colorado had better elevate their game or Dallas might walk away with the series easily, especially if Grubauer is hurt.
