This game simply came down to goaltending. If Kipper was good or hell, even mediocre, the Flames come out with 2 points.
It was there in the third period for the taking, it's not as bad a loss as you're making it out to be.

There were the same defensive miscues by the same culprits. Butler, Giordano, Bouwmeester, etc. The breakdowns are still happening and I don't buy that this game was solely a byproduct of poor goaltending. This team is playing the arguably worst defensive hockey of any team in the league right now and you only need to look at the GAA for proof. A lockdown game for this team is only allowing 3 goals.
