Personally I went into these playoffs with the obvious mindset that the Flames were a great hockey team but not the Stanley cup favourites. I for sure felt they could be contenders though. I said to myself that this is a team that if they do go on a good run will probably go to 7 games in all 4 rounds dog fighting all the way to the finals.
So far everytime they've lost in the playoffs I don't get upset because I know if the team is going to go all the way the will have the fight to respond and so far they've shown that can. They went down 2-1 in the first series and responded with hard fought game after hard fought game to win the series.
I understand a lot of people get emotional game but game and lose by lose but my positivity is if you sit back and watch them fight they might just have it in them to fight out another series victory.
