"It was one of my best games in this building this year," said Ramo, who improves his record to 9-5-1. " It didn't feel like it had been quite a while. I didn't feel rusty."
In Ramo's last start on Jan. 7, he was injured in a collision in the second period and ended up sidelined for two weeks. Since his return, Jonas Hiller had been red-hot, making eight straight starts.
"I had no doubt in my mind that he would be ready. We played him twice in the last couple of weeks coming in relief of Hills, and it was by design," said Flames coach Bob Hartley. "Hills had done nothing bad, but Rams hasn't played a lot since the first of December and we needed to get him time.
"He was outstanding."
On a night when a loss would have dropped Calgary out of a playoff spot, the Flames instead pull even with the Canucks— although Vancouver holds a game in hand.
"When the game was on the line, (Ramo) made the save that they needed," said Canucks winger Jannik Hansen. "We had four or five really good scoring chances. You can't really ask for more than that. If you don't score, that's your own fault."
