Battle of Alberta

Game 7 overtime winner on Sunday night helped the Calgary Flames shake their reputation of playoff underachievers.

It’s going to be fun for them, for us. “It’s a process, you’ve got to learn it and figure it out.” Both the Oilers and Flames had to endure tense, hard-fought, seven-game series in the opening round of this year’s playoffs. It’s going to be good for the province. I think it’s going to be a lot of fun.

Yeah there’s motivation, for sure, but you’re in the playoffs. Montour is far from the only player who wasn’t part of the series last year. Montreal in 1993 was the last team from Canada to win it all. Florida Panthers deadline addition Brandon Montour may not have had a rooting interest in Game 7 between the Tampa Bay Lightning and Toronto Maple Leafs on Saturday night. New York advanced to the second round for the first time since 2017 by beating the Penguins 4-3 in overtime in Game 7 Sunday night.

The fifth-seeded Hurricanes swept the 12th-seeded Rangers.
