That was a great game to watch, but one that left you feeling uncomfortable. The Leafs really out skated and outworked the Flames for much of the night. While it didn't amount to many dangerous scoring opportunities, it still is tough to see so many battles lost. The Leafs were prepared for the Flames and seemed to know some of the cute plays they've been making of late and shut that down. But once the Flames simplified and focused on getting the puck to the net, the tide turned. They had an answer and they figured out a way to win a game they probably could have easily lost. This team continues to amaze. One more finisher and this team is a serious contender.
