Was at the game. The Flames just seemed off. Low energy and not sharp.
Give Buffalo credit, they played hard and used the stretch pass/tip zone entry very well.
Seeing Markstrom with the flub after a great game was tough. He was really mad at himself and I hope he doesn't focus on that too much.
I have no idea what those ref's were looking at all night, but it wasn't the game. Really obvious (and dangerous) penalties were flat out ignored.
