The Calgary Flames crawled out of an early hole they dug to earn at least a point against the team chasing them in the standings. It was quite the lacklustre start for the Flames as the Los Angeles Kings – who played in Edmonton the night before – went immediately into a shutdown trap game. With two high-end defensive centers in Anze Kopitar and Philip Danault the Flames top forwards were constantly fighting for offence. Eventually the game ended in the shootout – which won’t be a factor for anyone when the playoffs start.
