That Backlund pass was a nothing play in the end (that line looks great as always though). The pass wasn’t on target, and Mangiapane was covered. Good play and all that, but dang Backs should have taken the puck and squared up for a chance himself.
This start is just…this season. Flames are playing hard, and controlling possession…and just a big ol nothing burger.
