Each and every one, and I would not say the Flames were "lucky" to have won the two they did. I think the last three games have featured an utterly disparate team playing on home ice against a team still finding their footing while stuck in the same hotel room for four straight days, and playing without their #2 centre for two of the three.
Think about it like this: The Flames destroyed the Canucks on home ice, and also managed to walk away with 4/6 points in Vancouver against a team that was playing to save their season.

They are barely outperforming what was supposedly a doormat team on the verge of complete implosion coming into the series.

Surely you have been watching this game long enough to know that any team can win on any night. The worst team in the Division erased a FIVE GOAL deficit to beat the top team yesterday. The Canucks were not going to lose every game this year, and with their backs against the wall it should come as no surprise that they played the games of their lives over the course of the past week. The Canucks are so bad that although playing at their absolute, desperate best, they cannot even manage to eke out better than three points on home ice.
