I thought the Flames' effort was high, and this is why the game was tied. Dallas just cranked it up a notch, and that's the real difference IMO. This is why the Flames are at the start of a rebuild - they don't have the goal scoring ability that Dallas does. When a good team matches the Flames' effort, this is the expected outcome.


Outside of having discipline issues tonight (and spotty reffing), I thought the Flames played a fairly good game overall start to finish. Just over-matched.
The expected goals were 2.39 and he gave up 6. He was the difference. He’s entitled to have a bad game.
