The Calgary Flames finished off their pre-Christmas schedule in disappointing fashion, losing 3-0 to the Minnesota Wild. The loss dropped the Flames to 8-3-1 over the 12 games since the coaching change.
Flames interim head coach Geoff Ward shared his thoughts with the media following the loss.
“We were pleased with our first period,” said Ward. “We came out of there pretty much even in chances. And we just gave up a few too many slot chances in the second. We tried to fight our way back in the third. It’s unfortunate that the goal wasn’t allowed.
