I just re-watched the game, because ... well, because.

The more I think about it, the more stunned I am we won that game. That's just such a Flames game to lose. Favoured? At home? Must-win? Playing amazing until game 6? Just ... so many things seemed to be pointing to a Flames loss. Then, of course - Goal Against on the very first Dallas shot. Classic, classic Flames. Work their asses off to tie it up and on the very next shift go back down by one. Keep working, keep working and we tie it up, but just can't go ahead.

That's just a recipe for the kind of kick-in-the-grundle loss we've seen over, and over, and over...

And they won. Not only did they win, but Johnny Gaudreau, our best player played a phenomenal game and came through in the clutch, while our go-out-and-get-him UFA #1 goalie signing played absolutely amazing.

Friggin' awesome, feels amazing.
