The Flames are filled with greasy goons who will try to get our skilled players to retaliate but hopefully the Oilers have learned to leave the Flames to turtle in the corner and stay out of the box. We don't need Kane sitting for five with Lucic because that's 5 minutes Lucic is unavailable to make horrible passes and turnovers. Oilers in 6 because the Flames will squeak some goals through our leaky goaltending. If we swapped the goalies it'd be a sweep.
Lets be honest. Oilers in game 6 were 6 minutes away from the same scenario against an LA team that had two of their best players out, and a young team that has way less experience than the Stars team. All that against an aging goalie in Quick who had good and bad games, while Flames faced a young goalie that had a historic series.
