I don't think I agree. It just feels like the oilers just know that they can win. They are playing bend but don't break, and no matter what, that they can win back momentum against the flames.

The flames don't seem to have that mind set. It's like even they aren't convinced that they can do this. Hence, the immediate dumb plays after getting momentum. They haven't been able to take momentum to carry them to victory.
