If you're a true fan of your team and a hockey fan in general you never want to win a game, let alone a series on a call like that. Ever.
Do I think that in the end it would have mattered? No. I think Edmonton was winning that series. But it's hockey. Anything can happen. Did I think Los Angeles was coming back from 0-3 eight years ago? No. So what the hell do I know?
I can't wait until we meet again in the playoffs. Anyone who loves this game loves these series. Non hockey fans should be subjected to watching Oilers vs Flames playoff hockey.

I also think the Oilers were destined to win this series. McDrai are playing historically good playoff hockey. Fifty two effing points. But I also feel this should be going back to Edmonton 3-2 right now. It should not have ended this way.
