But prior to that, cant say the Flames didn't deserve to be tied going into the third, either. If could've held on for 10 more seconds,Dallas was done. They threw it all out there in desperation and Flames almost weathered it.
But because they didn't weather it, and got worked over it OT, though JG and Reider had as good as changes as Dallas did in OT, the negative nannies come out and then the Flames were supposedly dominated all game.

Shots were also 34-34 when Rieder scored the SHG to go ahead. Dallas just went into desperation mode and Calgary tried to lock it down again, which they've been able to do up until today (and were 11 seconds away from doing it again).
