Calgary Flames: Who said 4-1 leads in hockey are bad?

Man, what a game. The Calgary Flames headed into this game on a two-game win streak and a three-game point streak. Mike Smith headed into this game being 10-1-4 against the Colorado Avalanche while Semyon Varlamov headed into this game with the best save percentage in the league at 0.950.

Varlamov’s numbers definitely got affected and while Smith was quite bad, to put it lightly, he still managed to get the W tonight. He should buy beers for all his teammates for their efforts.

This game seemed unlikely for the Flames.
