Flames Playoff Post-Game: Flames come up short against Dallas in Game 3

The Calgary Flames and Dallas Stars headed south to Texas to continue their first round series on Saturday night. Once again, it was a really close, tight, battle of a hockey game, though it was much more high-event than the two games had been offensively.

The lead changed hands a couple times, but the Stars got the go-ahead goal on a third period power play and hung on for a 4-2 win on home ice. The Stars lead this best-of-seven series 2-1.

The rundown

The opening period featured Matthew Tkachuk fighting playoff villain John Klingberg just 82 seconds in.
