Actually thought the Flames got better as the game went on. The 1st period seemed like there were 4 or 5 odd man rushes for the Canucks and they improved in that regard.
But wow is that powerplay awful. There was never really any danger and Markstrom didn't have to make any tough saves. SEVEN powerplays. Wow. Didn't like the look of the PP one bit. Thats 14 minutes of game time that the Flames should have taken a bunch of momentum and the opposite happened.
Saturday is going to tell me a lot about Bill Peters and what the PP is supposed to look like. I expect a much improved powerplay.
