1. Reffing, flames were absolutely screwed here
2. Tanev injury
3. Markstrom losing confidence
4. Hanifin directly causing multiple goals against and odd-numbered rushes per game.
5. Tkachuk no-show
6. Sutters lack of adjustments

I hate when refs are blamed for a loss. Its lazy….most of the time.
Fairly obvious what was going on in that series however. Its rare the refs are truly a big difference as made to be but it was in this series.
See the next round when the team that beat #2 seed in 5 games got run out of the rink by the #1 seed.
