The Flames were the better team, but I disagree that Bobrovsky stole it. He faced a lot of shots, but how many were quality? That was exactly the kind of game we play. A lot of shots, but not nearly enough challenging ones. Columbus tried to give us that game over and over and over again in the third, and we just kept on missing passes or shooting wide. And when we did threaten to get into a good area, Columbus' defence tightened up.
We threw this game away - and I don't mean just Russell. We let the laziest player in the NHL score on us twice. That alone makes this a well deserved L.
