Post-Game: Flames can’t solve Markstrom, get a point anyway

Friends, from time to time a hockey club will be utterly frustrated by a hot goaltender. On Saturday night, the Calgary Flames put 47 shots on Vancouver Canucks netminder Jacob Markstrom. The Flames couldn’t figure him out, but managed to earn a much-needed point in a 4-3 shootout loss in Vancouver.

Vancouver opened the scoring 44 seconds in, scoring on their first shot on David Rittich. It was a set play off a Canucks face-off win, as Bo Horvat took a pass from Chris Tanev and beat Rittich going side-to-side to make it 1-0.
