Well, it was the worst case scenario for the Calgary Flames that many of us saw coming.
This team wasn’t able to change the fact that their last victory at the Honda Center was January 19th, 2004. As a result, the Anaheim Ducks hold a 2-0 series lead — and the Flames are two games away from elimination.
The Flames haven’t given themselves many chances to win, either. They’ve been on the penalty kill 11 times throughout this series — allowing a trio of power play goals. Given how their losses in both Games 1 and 2 were by a goal, it’s safe to say the unnecessary amount of time in the sin bin has been the Flames biggest problem.
