We know Sutter and this team will lean on the Oilers as much as they can without taking penalties. Of all people I heard Mark Spector point out its not just a size disparity but all 4 of Calgary's tough guys are 4th liners and 3rd pairings where they should be. He said Nurse is tough but play 25 minutes a night so if Ritchie takes Nurse out Calgary wins. Kanes pretty tough but same diff hes an 18 minute top 6 guy they cant afford to loose. if he scraps Lucic Calgary wins.
If you haven't heard Spectors is taking Calgary to win!

Spector also had a really good article on Sportsnet about the BOA today. Most enjoyable one I've read actually.
I predict this BOA will prove to be a unifying force for Alberta, with Oilers fans finally admitting en masse that their team is no good.
