To be fair, from a pretty balanced perspective of both teams, the Flames didn't play all that poorly.
Decent start, great 2nd, and average 3rd. The problem with having an "average" period against a team like Chicago, is that if they actually turn it on, it's going to look like TERRIBLE period.
Flames really should have had a point, but with the way the Hawks played in the 3rd, there wasn't much likelihood of them getting any more than that. You're just not going to get much in the way of points when the Hawks are playing like that.
Either way, I thought the game was entertaining! A lot better than a few of the bores lately.
