Calgary Flames (0-0-1, 1 pt) - Vancouver Canucks (1-1-0, 2 pts)
“We need to be better.” That’s an actual headline from a story quoting Flames HC Geoff Ward about what the Flames need to do to beat the Canucks Saturday night. Sigh. Yes, the Flames need to be “better,” but they need to not back off and settle as well.
Calgary blew the doors off of the Winnipeg Jets in the first period Thursday night, scoring three times and pinning Connor Hellebuyck against the ropes.
