Post-Game: Flames find their swagger against the Ducks
The Calgary Flames came into Friday night’s game with the Anaheim Ducks in a position to make their playoff lives much easier with a win. Well, mission accomplished: the Flames got better as the game went along en route to a decisive 6-1 victory.
The Rundown
The Flames were fighting the puck in all three zones early in the first period, and their turnovers ended up coming home to roost… in their net. A loose puck wasn’t corralled in their zone, and it trickled to Andy Welinski at the point for a mean slapshot that beat Mike Smith through traffic to make it 1-0 Ducks.
