Like I said earlier, we like to make fun of the Oilers for their team defense but the Flames' team defense during this slump has been embarrassing. Yes, they have injury trouble but the forwards are making extremely dumb decisions too.
As long as they keep playing this way it doesn't matter who plays in net.

The Oilers game up 18 high danger chances tonight and had two goals scored. The Flames gave up 6 high danger chances and had three goals scored.
