It is easy as decision makers to look at the Lindholm (otherwise mr automatic) slap shot into the end boards as opposed to a ring around or hailmary flip to center and justify that the flames could likewise be a game away from the finals.

I get what you are saying, but Calgary was soundly outplayed in all but one of the games against Dallas and if wasn't for Talbot standing on his head for most of that series it wouldn't have even been close.
Dallas was outplayed by Colorado and the only reason they beat them is because Colorado was down to their 3rd string goalie.
So yes they were 11 seconds from going up 3 games to 1 in the series, in actuality it really wasn't that close of a series.
