Flames 5, Penguins 4 post-game embers: Back on the right track
The Flames have had an underwhelming road trip. In some fairness to them, their schedule has been physically all over the place since they returned from the break. In more fairness to them, though, they looked like they were ready to win this one, and that goes a long way.
Feel of the game
Both the Flames and Penguins played well pretty much throughout the entire game. What was refreshing for the Flames, though, was seeing them create scoring chances once again, and on a regular basis at that. They didn’t necessarily take it to the Penguins, but they didn’t let the Penguins dominate them, either – it was just a regular good ol’ game, with some extra chippiness involved.
