I'm not going to get into that book above.
I thought Markstrom battled back and had a solid game overall, but once again it's a body of work thing and night in night out the goalie at one end is not getting it done.
The guy at the other end is.
And for sure luck comes into that.
The Flames had two blue chip chances in the first 3 minutes of the game and didn't really get a shot off. Mangiapane has an empty net and hits the far post. That's not a goalie issue at all.
And Markstrom, as I pointed out had a screen and block out on goal 2, and the third one hit a body in front.
This just isn't the Flames season. Things just don't work. Not for star players finishing, and not for goaltenders stopping pucks.
