In the Flames/Oilers series it seems that we can expect the unexpected. After 2 barn-burners, game three came in with the under. The stat I did not expect to see was Mike Smith with a lower save average than Jacob Markstrom. 40 year old Smith has been a very successful goalie and looks to have found some of his “old” form, but Markstrom will need to be better if the Flames are to have any success. It is not really the fault of Markstrom; the Oilers have been dazzling on offense. The Oilers are peaking right now and that McDavid line is unstoppable. Even a wounded Drysatl was full marks in game three, and Kane had a hat trick on Sunday and is sixth in play off points. Perhaps one exceptional line can win a series after all. The Flames do not yet have a solution for the Oilers’ speed, and really only won Game one in Calgary through goalie ineptitude. I am on the home side tonight. Take the Oilers to win
