Well I based my opinion on a tightly played 7 game series that was decided in overtime. I figure that one of the premier players in the league would have made a difference in the series.

And it would have made a difference if our number 1\2 center wasn't injured as well. (Steven Reinprecht)

Playing for 25 years gives you the ability to see alternate reality, such as "what if". Even if he was in the line-up that is no gaurantee.
Answer this, what were the excuses for beating the other 2 Division leaders (Det and San jose)?
another point: If the Flames didnt have injuries to some of their biggest playoff scorers, and if Robyn Regehr wasnt playing with a broken ankle in game 7 of the final, maybe flames win the cup?
Hindsight is 20/20, and all your "what ifs" don't mean a thing.
