For me, it's tough because it's not like the Stars have found another gear these last two rounds. Or, some players got hot or Khudobin got hot.
They have not played an appreciably different or better game or style since the Flames series. They have just been consistent and methodical and wait for the opponent to make mistakes, which itself is a a solid trait. And, stayed away from injuries.
12 seconds of game 4. Tied going into third period of game 5 with one point shot getting through that didn't get through for the Flames. A terrible decision by the coach in game 6 in a tie game. Any one of those situations goes the other way and who knows. It may not have been Calgary winning the west but it certainly wouldn't have been Dallas.
