The Flames finally had that elusive #1 centre to play with Iginla.....
To be fair though Jokinen was the Flames leading scorer that playoffs, with 5 points in 6 games. This was an era where only about 10 centres a year had 80+ points.
The Flames lose two 1 goal games at the beginning of the series in heartbreaking fashion, claw their way back to a tied series, but then come out totally flat for the last two games:
