They were close. They were close to remaining perfect in outdoor games. They were close to not even allowing a goal. Close only buys you one point though. Two would have been better.
Feel of the game
This was a very basic game for the first 40 minutes, which was an advantage for the Calgary Flames. With the different conditions, new line combinations, and the fact that this was still an away game, sticking to basic was smart.
During the first two periods, they played safe and smart. They relied on their penalty kill, which was in the midst of killing off 11 straight penalties.
