Flames played well 5 on 5 but obviously didn't do quite enough. Hopefully, the team will learn how to get under their skin.

Absolutely!! I really don't understand why the Flames don't play the little princesses on the Oilers tougher. They need to go back to the Badger Bob days where he assigned Neil Sheehy to shadow Gretzky all over the ice and make life miserable for him. Who on the Flames could be our Sheehy?
