Things that stood out from that comment:
1. The historic amount of shots/opportunities we steered Oettinger's way
2. The Stars aren't dumb, they knew to limit shots that move him side to side, every defence tries to limit those opportunities.
Nice to see how historic that goaltending performance was, and how the Flames overcame it. Sweeping the Oiler's and Mike Smith would be amazing, and the Flames have the horses to do it.

Making smith go side to side will only put him on LTIR
