We can point fingers at the offense but Flames still had close to 40 shots and couple posts from Tkachuk and Gudbranson. It's a game of inches.
Defensively the Flames needed to be better. That starts with faceoffs and ends with lowering chances and shots against... they got away from their game in that regard in this one owing to Dallas's desperation. I'm sure Markstrom would like to have the first goal back too.
Some individuals are delivering and some are flagging but the only way Calgary will win on Sunday is by a complete team effort.
