The Flames started strong, scoring a goal and hitting a post in the opening five minutes, but fell back on their heels and buckled underneath Vancouver's pressure.
The Calgary Flames fell 2-1 to the Vancouver Canucks, who force a Game 6 at the Saddledome on Saturday night. Ultimately the Flames could not contain Daniel and Henrik Sedin, who converted many of their shot attempts into scoring chances.
