We didn’t actually learn anything new. The playoffs have always been like this: underdogs win; favourites lose; teams peaking at the right time go far while those who didn’t don’t.
There is a tonne of randomness in NHL playoff hockey. For the Flames, this year’s results will almost certainly not have much of an effect on what happens next year, or the year after that. The Flames were one of the best teams by every significant measure in the regular season. If they come close to repeating that performance they will rightly be regarded a “contender” in the post season.
