CALGARY, Alberta (AP) - Down 2-0 in their Western Conference quarterfinal series because they couldn't protect leads in Chicago, the Calgary Flames know it could be a long summer for the salary-cap club built for a long playoff run.

The Flames, set for Game 3 on Monday night, squandered a two-goal lead in Game 2 after Chicago came from behind to win Game 1 in overtime.

Oddsmakers currently have the Flames listed as 145-moneyline favorites versus the Blackhawks, while the game's total is sitting at 5.5.

The Flames have never won a playoff series trailing 0-2. Teams holding a two-game lead in NHL playoff series have won 87.3 percent of them in league history.

The Flames didn't skate, but held a team meeting Sunday. The Blackhawks had a light practice at the United Center before heading to Calgary.

The Flames are up against the youngest team in the NHL playing with the devil-may-care, fearlessness of youth. It's the older, more experienced Flames who have tightened up when the Blackhawks pushed back after falling behind.
