It’s very juxtaposing that the Calgary Flames have so many predictable traits but can manage to make their games interesting. A slow start, penalty trouble, a multi-goal deficit in the third period, and a dramatic comeback all made appearances in last night’s game. The result? This time, penalty trouble made them pay and the Flames only walk away with a single point in an overtime loss.
Feel of the game
It took some time for the Flames to find their legs against the St. Louis Blues, and then once they did it was in two different waves: able to keep paces with the Blues and able to gain an edge on one of the superior teams in the league.
