Take the two points for sure, as the Flames have been on the other side of games like that (6-0 to Ottawa comes to mind), but that wasn't a 5-1 game in terms of play.

That's how I saw it too. Flames were opportunistic. After getting worked all 2nd period they got 2 late goals. Very fortunate.
Smith was excellent. Best player probably.
