I’m feeling strangely confident about this one. Markstrom has been been in god mode lately, which bodes well. And the Flames have zero pressure on them right now. They just need to go out, play their asses off and have fun.
All the pressure is on Edmonton IMO, who have been playing like garbage since their ridiculous smoke & mirrors win streak, and as it turns out, they are who we thought they were.
That being said, this is still their Stanley Cup tonight and they’ll definitely be fired up after losing last night. They also will have the refs in their back pocket as per usual, so expect at least 6 or 7 McPPs tonight, especially if the Flames get an early lead.
**edit** Dammit, just saw that Vladar is starting. Oh well.
