Should be a great first-round matchup if the Flames can exorcise their Anaheim curse.

Calgary has horrible luck in Anaheim! Still think the Flames take the matchup in 5. No pun intended, but Flames were red hot down the stretch!

My Prediction: Flames in 6 games

Me picking the Flames would be the opposite of homerism..... yet I'm going to do it anyway: Flames in 7

[RGM81]

Well, that ended quickly.

I guess you could say that Calgary's season went up in.......Flames.

Feels bad for Elliot also. Just a hunch, but I don't think the Flames will be resigning him in the offseason.

I didn't think this series was going to be a sweep either.

[RGM81]

I can't see a scenario where either party feels it's a good fit going forward. They're probably going to take another run at Ben Bishop, I would think.

No way that the Flames will re-sign Elliott. Flames should have had at least 2 wins if they had average goaltending.

Probably will have 2 new goalies next year.

If I had to be wrong on a prediction, I guess this one is okay? lol.

I'm surprised. I thought the ducks were ripe for the picking, and Calgary had the right kind of team to do it.
