Carol Schram: Vancouver Canucks Game Review: Series Goes Long as Flames Battle Continues With their best game of the series, the Vancouver Canucks logged a 2-1 win over the Calgary Flames on Thursday night to force a sixth game in their first-round playoff series.

Backlund "no way we loose at home", man you never say things like that!

Chiarelli in EDM will make the offseason interesting given the relationship with Benning.

Last nights game was a perfect example of what not to do from the Flames perspective.

The Canucks have the momentum going into Calgary and are going to be hungry as hell when that game starts tomorrow night.

It will be another close one.

All series I've been hollering for the boys to "accidentally" run Hiller. I never expected H.Sedin to be the one to do it. Now if someone would hammer JG and make him think twice about prancing around in our zone, I would be even happier!

Yup, that quote HAS to be up in the Canucks dressing room until game 6 is over.

Henrik has surprisingly done it a few times this season, it's good to see.

Benning and PC do have a very good history , so it could open the door to deals.

We both have pieces the both teams need.

With PC there and McDavid , Edmonton now becomes an attractive destination that players may waive NTCs

Most likely only players who aren't married(the wives don't care about McDavid).

He wasn't charged with a single giveaway on the boxscore. Bieksa was only charged with one.

Home ice advantage?

Don't think WD gets away with that with CGY getting last change on the road in game 6.

Sometimes I find it hard to lend as much credence to advanced stats as I would like to because the recording of statistics is often flawed to begin with.

Yup. That's why you can never put too much faith into stats like that.
