Ill make final prediction when I see the lineups on Thursday
but right now..I think were too banged up for the next series.

I have a feeling that kipper will end up on the highlight reel ALOT both making saves, and being beat in this next series.
I think Detroit in 6(if the flames dont get healthy)
If we do get healthy, and stay that way, then I change my vote to Flames in 7.

Detroit isnt as hard hitting as Van. They will skate around..should be interesting to see how it goes.

Detroit has both massive depth and massive experience.

Calgary's ace in the hole is Kipper. If he can pull a Giguere they might be able to stretch this out to 6 games, MAYBE 7, but after the war against Vancouver I don't know if they have enough to take this series.

detroit in 6. calgary has a lot of heart, but detroit has a lineup that can really only be outscored by colorado. (i say this loosely as its a questionable SUGGESTION)

i think detroit will learn from vancouver and know the best thing is, is to put bodies in front of kipper SMARTLY, and take lots of close shots. point shots rarely beat him.

I see the grind line of Detroit (Maltby, Holmstrom, McCarty) doing a lot of damage to Kipper's crease. Detroit in 6.

Detroit has so much depth compared to Calgary. It is going to be a long shot for Calgary to win this one, plus as mentioned before the injuries for Calgary are not going to help.

I will still be cheering loud for the Flames, and hoping they can pull it off. GO FLAMES GO!!

Even though Calgary is banged up and injuries don't help a team, I don't think it's as detrimental as most may think. As long as Kiprusoff and Iginla are healthy, the supporting cast must only buy into the system and understand their role. Sutter keeps it simple. Excessive talent is not required.

I can't wait until the senior citizens of Detroit start crying because the Flames aren't respecting their elders. I hope they break Yzerman, Hull or Shanahan..maybe all three.

Curtis Joseph...has he played 20 games this season?

I say the series follows much the same path as Vancouver-Calgary and the Flames are victorious.

Flames Forever!

And my prediction is Detroit win in 5.
Hopefully I will be proven wrong as to who the winner will be .

Detroit in 5, they have way to much talent for Calgary to handle.

Wings in 6 - I see guys like mentioned above, the Grind Line, Hatcher, and Chelios really pushing the Flames players around - unless Simon and Gauthier don't come back, I can't see anyone in Calgary answering to Hatcher's size.
