I don't think the Flames were as bad for the first 50 minutes as people were making them out to be.
Columbus scored on their 2nd and 6th shots. One being a bit of a weak goal, and one being a horrible (if not a bit unlucky to turn into a 2-0) turnover by Backlund.
Columbus just tried to trap the rest of the game, but I wouldn't say they were outplaying Calgary. They were just clogging the netural zone to try to win 2-0. Flames dominated the shots and chances after the first, and it back fired for Columbus in the end.
