Take the point.
The Flames had a boatload of jam for a team that didn’t have a practice and had nine days off between games. They brought it both in terms of territorial play, and culture setting up three different fighting majors with come to the rescue of a teammate plays.
Where they weren’t solid though was defensively giving up way too many opportunities and giving the Rangers chance after chance to either go ahead or come back late, finally falling to New York in overtime.
For Markstrom, pretty much the same old story … no ugly goals per say, but five against vs a 3.5 night in expected goals says the Flames lost the goaltending battle again.
The point keeps the team plugging in the standings with three more road games on this trip; Detroit, Buffalo and Ottawa.
