My prediction was Flames in 6 games.

I believe that Calgary will eventually wear Dallas down.

Nothing in the first two games has changed my mind.

Compared to other playoff years with this core, they’ve had consistent effort in both games whereas after game 1 of the last two there was some kind of awe, or performance anxiety so much so that they just watched until the last game of the series…. 
 

i get that in the most previous year’s playoffs they were one win away from going up 3 games to 1 but I didn’t think they came to play and would have won 2 they shouldn’t have. 
 

this year is different. I have a feeling it’s in 6. But if it takes 7, having that early playoff adversity to overcome tends to help go far in the playoffs. 
 

plus, I think every time the Flames have gone 7, they’ve made it to the Cup final. Although, the other two times they played Van.
