Beyond the boxscore – G5: Bright lights and the big city

I’m going to be sad when the Flames inevitably trail in a game again, but it’s been since they played the Oilers opening night. (They didn’t trail against Anaheim, just lost it at the end.) Now I expected the Flames to put pressure on the Rangers, but I never expected the Rangers defence to crumble so easily. The forecheck caused the Rangers to directly pass the puck to a Flames forward upwards of 6 times in the first period alone. Let’s just say Igor Shesterkin isn’t buying any teammates dinner after this one.
