Western Conference Final
L 4-2 @ COL (May 24)
Georgiev makes 41/43 saves and the Flames struggle to score against Colorado. Beauvillier picks up a two point night as they look to pick up at least one win before they head back across the border.
OTL 3-2 @ COL (May 26)
Landeskog scores 43 seconds into OT, and the Flames are forced to deal with a 2-0 deficit. Beauviller scores again but the Flames backs are up against the wall. Kadri is day to day with elbow issues.
W 2-1 vs COL (May 28)
Despite a .950 SV% night for Georgiyev, Markstrom has a better night and the Flames get their first WCF win. Beauvillier sets up Novak and Hronek for the goals
W 4-2 vs COL (May 30)
Calgary even the series back up as a 44 shot night is enough to beat Georgiyev again. Cole Sillinger scores twice as the Flames return south to try and get a series lead.
L 7-3 @ COL (Jun 1)
Markstrom is absolutely beat as the Avs are too strong for the Flames. Huberdeau, Backlund and Sharangovich score but the remaining games are now must win for Calgary.
W 6-4 vs COL (Jun 3)
A 3a night for Andersson is enough so that the Flames win all their home games in the WCF. With neither team yet to win on the road, it all comes down to game 7 to play for the Stanley Cup. With Kadri back in the lineup, Flames fans have their fingers crossed.
W 7-4 vs CGY (Jun 5)
The Flames are Western Conference Champions!!! Huberdeau has 1g 3a, Novak 1g 2a and the hot scoring bails out a 22/26 night from Markstrom.
