Monday nights loss to the New York Islanders stings — with the Calgary Flames giving up a one goal lead, and then a two goal lead to eventually lose in Overtime.
Mikael Backlund registering 2 goals on 5 shots for the night. Flames defenseman Hanifin leading with 6 SOG, Weeger 5 SOG, Andersson 4 SOG.
Calgary had the jump to start the game, outshooting the Isles in the first half — Backlund and Lindholm with first period goals for Calgary. Backlund with the lone second period goal.
The Islanders were quick to cut the Flames early lead — 30 seconds after the first Backlund goal — Sebastian Aho would snipe in a perfect pass from Barzal, scoring on the first Isles shot to tie the game 1-1.
