The Flames didn't get A list goaltending, like they've been used to all season. But then again, neither did the Avs, but they limited the net front and high slot chances as well as odd man rushes. The Flames don't win with merely "good" goaltending. With the Flames' skaters playing like they did, they would have had to "goalie" the Oilers.

I didn't say it was all him but they didn't get enough saves, it's pretty obvious IMO. 4 of 5 games were tied in the third period...good goaltending would have been enough.
