The Calgary Flames beat the Colorado Avalanche by a 6-5 score on Thursday night. Here are selected reactions from players and coaches following the game.
The Flames stuck with the program
The Flames trailed 4-1 following the second period despite carrying the bulk of the play. But head coach Bill Peters gave his team kudos for sticking with their systems and not giving up – the main adjustment they made was getting a few extra bodies in front of Semyon Varlamov.
“After 40 it didn’t feel like we played the way the score reflected, the 4-1 score,” said Peters.
