The buzz around the rink as the Flames get set for the Oilers in Game 1. "The best part is watching the players. Those breaks between series'. You want them to have their break, right, because there's always some mental and physical (fatigue), so there's some re-group there. And guys that are banged up, you want them to get as much time as you can. But then when you get closer to the game, then you start seeing how guys react differently. That's kind of the fun part. You learn lots about your players. Both teams got a lot of guys that haven't been in the second round or won second rounds, so you see they handle it, too."

Kraken center Morgan Geekie was a notably hard worker on training ice all season. It paid dividends, like this month's chance to play for Canada at the World Championships. Kraken fans who attended open practices at Kraken Community Iceplex during the inaugural season likely noticed Morgan Geekie staying on the ice later than most of his teammates. He might have been taking extra faceoffs (typically against veteran Riley Sheahan) and almost always would collect a bunch of pucks to work on his shot.

What was talked about following a huge win over the Oilers in Game 1. "Our team showed a lot of composure. We gave up that goal to even the score in the third period and a lot of inexperienced teams would crumble right then and there, but our guys didn't back down. We got right back to our game and had a response. Amongst the chaos, I really thought we had some composure in the third. It was ugly, but when your team can rely on each other and trust each other ... it's a good sign going forward."

Smith, who was pulled after allowing three goals on 10 shots in the first 6:05 of Game 1, a 9-6 loss here Wednesday, said he's mindful that he can't change the past.
