Flames get off to a better start, but the back to back gets to them in the end

The main concern from this game is the status and health of Kevin Bahl who took a wrist shot to the side of the head before a Canucks goal on Thursday night. A scheduled loss for the Flames, who were on a tough back-to-back to start the season.

They also decided to start Dustin Wolf in the back-to-back, and it did not go well. A couple of uncharacteristic goals got by Wolf, and on the other side Thatcher Demko looks to be back to his old self after battling injuries last season.

The start of the game was substantially better than their start in the season opener, but as expected the pace and the forecheck slowly faded as the game went on.
