Here's hoping that Elliott makes sure this guy never has the opportunity to bust out his finger guns.

Call me crazy, but I think the Flames win in six. I think Elliott is going to steal one of the games in Anaheim, preferably the first one to get in their heads. I think our power play which has been on and off this year will also shine. Gut feeling that we make them pay with their undisciplined play. I am hopeful that we don't fall into their shenanigans.
I think we have much more balanced scoring than the last time we faced them in th playoffs and I think that we can mess with them if our top three lines are producing. Th fourth line would be a bonus.
The Flames tend to rise up to their competition, so I am hopeful that we play at or above their level... would love to see an overtime win and also a blowout win at some point!
Go Flames Go!

It won't be a miracle. The Flames are honestly good enough on their merits to beat the Ducks in Anaheim.

Literally all they have to do is avoid the rough extracurricular stuff and play their game.
They will win at least 2 games in this series if they do that, I believe. And have a good shot of taking it.
They've sabotaged their game many times by simply allowing themselves to get thrown off.
The game in december, the game on sunday (would've been OT except for a momentary gaff by Elliott) and the 1st period of tuesday's games are indicative of their potential.

As Yogi Berra might say, this series is ninety percent mental and the other half is physical.

Flames in 6. Hey have the biggest chip on their shoulder to end this stupid curse. Mind over matter, and it is simply, a matter of time.

What I'd love to see:
Flames 3 @ Ducks 2 - 3OT
Flames 4 @ Ducks 0
Ducks 2 @ Flames 1 - 2OT
Ducks 0 @ Flames 2
Flames 2 @ Ducks 4
Ducks 1 @ Flames 6
What a series that would be.

One thing to keep in mind is that the Flames have been playing every second night since before the streak ended - this does not allow for proper practice time to fix some of the defensive problems that were creeping into their game. I have little doubt that these things are being properly addressed now and we'll see a tighter Flames team come Thursday.

Unfortunately the NHL referees may have a huge part in how this series goes down. I really hope the series does not come down to questionable calls. It's hard to take.
