I thought the Flames were physically outmatched throughout most of the game.
If either Backlund or Frolik scores in the second things might have turned out differently. And hard to give up a goal in the last minute of a period.
No shame in losing, WSH is a great team in goal, on defence and can roll four forward lines. And of course no. 8.
Flames have played the two likely Cup finalists from the East in a week and for the most part matched up quite well. Great experience down the stretch.
Now beat the Preds on Thursday.
