I just can't see the Flames winning this series.
Ducks are pretty much a juggernaut with 5 straight Pacific titles (4 under the current format)
They seem to kick our ass on a regular basis, even if they aren't at their best
We haven't won in their building since 2006
Flames haven't really been playing very good for a few weeks now
Anyways, all signs point towards a quick exit from these playoffs, but at the same time I didn't see any way this team would even make the playoffs back in mid November, so you never know. We have talent, just need to stick to our game and get over the mental hurdles to have any chance at all.

IMO if they lose the series but win a game in Anaheim it's a successful series. They have to beak the curse if they are ever to move up to contender status.

The Flames need to learn to win in Anaheim sooner or later if the team ever hopes to be more than playoff fodder anyway. Better to try now than later.
I don't expect the team to win, but I hope they show some push back this series.

My head says Ducks in 5. My heart says Ducks in 2, because the Flames will be too embarrassed to come back to the Saddledome for their home games.
But I'm only saying that because I've got bronchitis AND my foot in a cast, and I'm just generally pissed off at the world right now. So, like, never mind.

This is the only reason I have any hope at all. Missing two if not all three of their top three defensemen could be devestating for them.
Anyone know what the injury report on Lindholm and Vatanen says? I know Fowler is week to week.

I don't know about you guys but I am thoroughly SHOCKED that EE picked the flames to lose this series. But at least he had the decency to preface the prediction with an apology. Now I can sleep easy.
FLAMES in 6.

All I can get

I want Garnet Hathaway called up. A little extra size (with speed) on the checking units would help.

Gives them another 3-4 cracks at the curse. And no it wouldn't count cause its not regular season but they could maybe at the very least take a step and kick off that loathsome, annoying monkey. And if they do prevail then it means they also found a way to beat it.
