    Even though I want the Flames and think they;ll make the upset happen, this series probably interests me least. Maybe it's because I can't see either team making it all the way?

    Dallas started Khudobin over Bishop. Bishop is on the bench

    Woah. Didn't even hear that was possible.

    It has something to do with them having three games in the first four days. Wouldn't be surprised to see Bishop start the rest of the series.

    Bishop has been “unfit to play” but Bowness has also declared the whole team healthy. Bishop does have a reputation of not really pushing through injuries (which is fine), so maybe he was healthy enough for an emergency situation but wanted another day or two.

    Postgame, Bowness said it was about practice time, but who really trusts coachspeak at the best of times.

    Bishop was injured to some extent heading into this series so while he was on the bench and "available", he might not be there yet. It's not like Khudobin is a bad 2nd option.

    I forgot about Bishop being unfit to play recently. Khudobin actually outplayed Bishop in the regular season (though in a smaller sample size) so I'm with the consensus there that he's still a very solid option.

    Smaller sample size and I am guessing likely against the lesser competition. My guess is that Khudobin got the games against Detroit, Ottawa, Los Angeles and such.

    Six of 30 games all season were against teams that didn't make the 24 team play ins. STL three times, EDM twice, and TB, COL, WSH, PIT each once. I wouldn't necessarily say his stats were padded.
    He was also almost as good last season too - every quarter of the season was over a .920 sv%.

    My coin flip prediction called for a Flames sweep, so I'll go 4-2 Calgary, but this is how I feel about it:

    Big win for Dallas, Bishop and their offense. And now this series is the first back to back of round 1.

    I wonder if they go back with Talbot for game three or give Rittich a shot.

    I didn't get to see much of this game. I did see Heiskanen's goal.. and Talbot will definitely want that one back.

    Were the rest of the goal's weak as well?

    You would think they give Rittich a shot. Then they can always go back to Talbot after.
