The best thing about that game (other than the obvious ... they won) is the fact that showed up so strong and ready.
No mental fragility that has really hurt this franchise for decades.
They put their best game on the ice, and almost lost to an amazing goaltender.
Through the series I thought there were times where the Dallas clogging had the Flames off their game, but you didn't really question their work ethic (games 2, and 5).
The last half of game six and ten minutes in game three were the only periods where Dallas was the better team.
Taking out the assumption of a nervous team not playing to their potential against Edmonton is something I love.
They'll show.
Count on it.
