Saturday saw the Flames lose a frustrating game to Pacific rival, the Vancouver Canucks. From the start of the second period, the Flames utterly dominated every aspect of the game, but could only beat Jacob Markstrom once in the final two frames.
The first period saw the Flames suffer a terrible start, with Bo Horvat one timing a Chris Tanev pass just 44 seconds in, on the first shot of the game. Elias Lindholm and the Flames responded 5 minutes later, with Lindholm sliding a Sean Monahan centering pass home.
