We’ve heard the cliché a million times over the past few weeks, but it’s true: every game is a big game. The Ottawa Senators endured a horrific loss against the Vancouver Canucks on Saturday night, and they were looking to bounce back on Sunday against the Calgary Flames while on their western road trip. The Flames had been struggling of late, going 2-4-2 over their previous eight games, which was a perfect opportunity for Ottawa to capitalize on that.
The Senators caught a break early on as Tyler Toffoli thought he put the Flames up 1-0 about halfway through the period.
