Some Geoff Ward “highlights” from this series

- Took until game 6 to change the structure to slow down the Stars forecheck and stretch pass breakout

- Kept the same forwards on the ice for the last 3 minutes of game 4, Stars tie it with 12 seconds left and win in OT

-Pulls the playoffs MVP after a lucky goal that hit a stick and two legs to put in a goalie that hadn’t played a meaningful game since March 8th

- Dressed Zac Rinaldo for 3 games even though the team was outplayed drastically ever game he played in the playoffs, and removing him from the lineup is what turned the tide against the Jets

Honestly he’s not the reason they lose this series but he cost them tonight’s game. And it kills me because I think those guys on the ice actually gave it their all tonight up until the coach made one of the worst coaching decisions I’ve ever seen.

That sounds impossible.
I’m sure someone somewhere lost 7 or 8-0 at some point

Man, I'm not even looking forward to watching the Avs destroy these guys, either. Just a "bleh" matchup. Would have been amazing watching them play the Blues or Canucks.

You guys can't be serious

Flames are dominating the game in every metric other than goal tending...its not even a homer thing check natural statrick

I know it doesn't quite fit your narrative of the team not showing up but this game is 100% on goal tending

Atleast we end the season with a powerplay. I’m sad. But hey! Atleast we got 10 games after it looked like the season was done. We also got to enjoy 5 wins.

That just proves they are fragile.

Yes almost. Except for the goalie and first 2 lines and coach plus GM.

Not even close....

January 23, 1944: Detroit 15, New York Rangers 0. The most one-sided game in NHL history took place in Detroit on January 23, 1944, when the Red Wings blanked the New York Rangers, 15-0.

2 years ago Pitt beat Flyers 7-0
