Flames have been the clearly better team in both games IMO. Problem is in a game of few chances, you have to convert, and they didn't.
If this series was a track meet instead of a chess match, the Flames would win it handily. But by shutting down all the creative play, Dallas is going to force the Flames into a series of coin-flips.
Hopefully a trip away from Calgary and a bit less pressure has them loosen their grips on their sticks a bit. I'm not worried yet, but I'll be ticked if we're forced to watch 5 more games like that one if the Flames don't come out on top in the end.
