Flames did ditch the drop pass.
Opportunistic goals by the Canucks; Gio gassed at end of pp for Virtanen, blocked shot by Hanifin in his skates and ends up right to Peterssen, the team leaving early on the 4th goal,and a 2 on 1 goal and EN.
Flames had to outchance and have 5x that many opportunities and puck directed at the net that didn’t get that bounce or two the Canucks got. Most of it was missed by Randorf as he was busy lauding Peterssen but the Flames dominated.
Flames were in a different hemisphere in the last 15 minutes of third, and drew and deserved all of the penalties.
Again, annoying to lose but it’s pretty lazy analysis to say “same old flames we suck, core sucks” that some of this is already degenerated to.
