Through four games the Flames have yet to get off to a weak start 5v5, but against the Capitals Saturday afternoon the Flames struggled in the second period. Second time in as many games such an occurrence has happened, except this time the team that put the pressure to them was one that knew how to competently score goals. (Shoutout to Ovi – go get that record, King.) Ultimately the play of the Flames very elite first line carried them to two points, despite their depth and defence doing everything they could to try and help Washington win.
