Rittich's leaky first period to me was the difference. He didn't have it tonight and should have been pulled after goal number two.
Flames can leap frog Arizona and Vancouver with a W on Tuesday night to take over 2nd in the division. Fine by me.

Yes and no. At 5v5, the Flames led the Canucks in scoring chances 24-16 (60%) but in terms of high danger chances, the Canucks dominated 7-2 (77.78%).
However, overall, the Flames led scoring chances 38-22 (63.33%) and high danger chances 9-8 (52.94%).
Tonight was definitely not a night to remember for Rittich.
