"You know we've been a really good line throughout the season and if we play like that as we have done, we'll be find. We've just got to get back to our game."

CRITICAL GAME
Flames Head Coach Darryl Sutter knows there's a lot of twists and turns in a series.
He says the Flames can't look too far ahead but he knows this is a big game.
