Yes, the OT goal was divinely influenced, but the Flames were full marks for this win.
The first 10 or 15 minutes was some of the worst hockey they have played this year. But once they started skating, they were able to put a ton of pressure on the Boston D with the fore-check.
And that started to tilt the ice the other way and generate chances. For a while, all of the potential rebounds were bouncing over sticks, or Rask was making great saves, but they steadily took over.
By about halfway through the 2nd, I was absolutely confident they were going to get the W.
And the amount of garbage that the Bruins were getting away with behind the play was atrocious - some pretty horrible reffing.
But they persevered and fully deserved the win.
And the assist to Montador on the game winner was nice too!

It is pretty fun to go and read HF boards these days, I love that other fans hate us.
I love this team!
I don't believe for 1 second that we are the Colorado team from last year and this is all luck.
If the teams think it is tough to play us this year, next year will be even tougher.
The OT winner was a fluke but I'll take it! The rest was created luck, if you can even call it that.
We're Boston's goals tonight lucky?

I have to give credit to Bruins fans at the 'Dome, they were alright and didnt do anything crazy or stupid.
What a game though. I was chatting with a Bruins fan while buying beer and he was ecstatic, up 3-0 so they wouldnt lose their 4th straight and I told him that the Flames had them right where they wanted them.
Lo and behold.
It aint over till its over.
