A spinorama bank off a defenders skate, a broken play where a guy bats it out of mid-air, and a horrendous goalie gaffe. Those are the goals.

I only caught the highlights and watched the third, but I think I'd concur with Armstrong's assessment. Take the bounces and run, but to not call this lucky...we're wearing blinders.
It was lucky.

But where I'd give the Flames props is they kept it to a pretty low event game especially at 5v5. Didn't generate much at all but also didn't give up a ton at 5v5 either. Then just took advantage of some bounces when they did have chances.

Very much Huska hockey in terms of being low event.
