Ah, yes. That’s right. The Flames are a playoff team; have indisputably been one for some time now, even if it only just recently became official. It’s not exactly a surprise when they resume looking the part.
Feel of the game
The Flames had a strong start, as one would expect, considering the quality of the matchup. That didn’t translate, though; at least not right away, when the Ducks briefly got ahold of the game and made it 1-0 as a result. But it didn’t last long at all. Following a powerplay that looked much improved, Mark Giordano tied the game.
