Post-Game: Close but no cigar for Flames against Leafs

The Calgary Flames played for the first time in six days on Sunday afternoon against the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Flames looked occasionally a bit rusty, particularly with their puck management, but they were right there with the Leafs for much of the game.

A couple bounces were the difference in a razor-thin 3-2 home loss to Toronto.

The rundown

The first period was pretty even, with both teams getting their looks and both goaltenders making big saves. But the road team opened the scoring midway through the period.

The Leafs spent a bit of time in the Flames zone.
