Domination

Tonight my Calgary Flames completely dominated the "Mighty" Ducks of Anaheim 5-2, taking a 2-1 lead in the best of 7 series.

The first two games Calgary looked, admittedly, a bit sluggish compared to the speed of the Ducks. Calgary goalie, Mikka Kiprusoff, looked like something for which he's certainly not known, being human. There were some rookie mistakes, bad line changes, and even some bad luck. What a difference a few days make.

In Game 3, Calgary flew out of the gate and threw down the gauntlet. They beat the Ducks to loose pucks, made some powerful hits, and basically out hustled a team that looked dead tired.
With the win, the Flames regain home ice advantage in the series, something that will benefit a team that was 30-7-4 at home this season.

This marked only the second win for the Flames in the Duck's home arena, and what a way to do it too. Complete domination.

Well, as much as I hate Flames, I gotta say that they can play well with some passion...
