Calgary Flames have fallen behind in three of their last four games.

The Flames have been outscored 17-8 in the opening frames of their 15 games this season.

Matt Coronato has not-so-quietly had a really impressive road-trip.

The 21-year-old scored twice against the Montreal Canadiens including the overtime winner and then made a heads-up play.

Neither of the Sabres’ two first -period goals were his fault, as Zach Benson roofed the puck from a dangerous position and it’s generally just not a good idea to let Tage Thompson blast a one -timer from the slot, regardless of who is in net. Vladar didn’t have his busiest night, but he saved 17 -of-19 shots and came up with a couple big stops when it was needed. Both he and Wolf are giving the Flames a chance to win almost every time they play..
