Solid game by the guys. They kept pushing, even after some unfortunate plays that got them down 2 early. Full credit to Markstrom, who kept them in it and made those saves so Nashville didn't get that third. I think this team is slowly starting to get I on the defensive side. The forwards coming back and pressuring the puck carrier really showed that game. Still a bit scary when they set up that zone defense in their end. Flames were the better team all game and were just getting goalied early.
Also it is nice to see Zary play with that confidence. 3 points in 3 games...best Connor in Alberta right now. His play away from the puck should also be commended. I know the team has been frustrated early this season, so it was good to see them rewarded for a good effort.
