Habs would've been in their way to mentally beaten if it was 2-0 but they got gifted life, and then the Habs confidence grew through the game, which the Flames haven't done for a couple months.

A 2 goal lead in the first and it's game over? A 2 gaol late in the second and it isn't? We both know that doesn't really make any sense.
It's not like Flames dominated the first and were on their way to mentally beating them. Montreal was better team that entire period.
There was no single turning point in this game other than the GWG obviously. Flames were off, Montreal was pretty good and there you have it.
