Comeback Win Gives Flames the Series Lead


What a game! The Flames looked down and out in the early in the first period with a 3-0 deficit and Kipper pulled. Just so happens that Cujo gets thrown into the fire and backstops the Flames to a 4 unanswered goal comeback win. That's playoff hockey for ya.

The turning point must have been Sarich's hit on Marleau as he smoked him into the boards. It's too early to find the hit on youtube but it was one of the hardest clean checks I've ever seen.
I'm extremely entertained. So I can't really ask for more...

This now gives the Flames a 2-1 series lead and home ice advantage. They've played well at home this entire season and just need to outwork, outhustle and outhit the Sharks and they could upset the team everyone seemed to be picking as this year's Stanley Cup winner. I like upsets.

UPDATE:

here's the hit everyone's talking about:
