The Calgary Flames came in from three days without a game to play the visiting Dallas Stars. They were pretty decent in the first period, but couldn’t keep up with the Stars in the second period. The Flames spent much of the game chasing en route to a 3-1 loss to close out their homestand.
The Rundown
The first period was a bit herky jerky, with a lot of it played between the bluelines. The teams exchanged power plays but neither side scored. Dallas generated a couple nice scoring chances off a loose puck scramble after they killed off their penalty, but some nice moves by Cam Talbot and some favourable bounces kept the game scoreless.
