It's just like Tanev said when they play together and commit to playing their style their game they truly are an incredible team.
They have certain keys to their game that were applied to start second in terms of how they need to skate, to check, to forecheck, to compete, to win battles and when they do it looks great. The plays will be there if they do those things early. That effort has to come first - right from the start.
Play the entire game with that mentality.

That's very typical, teams with a 2 goal lead don't skate as hard anymore nor do they attack as much.
Flames always look good when behind by a couple goals, especially in the 3rd periods. The look awesome then.
It's been their specialty for a while. Look like crap, get behind and then storm out in the third to make it close and give fans false hope.
