Recap

I didn't see the whole game, as i missed about half the game due to some internet difficulties. Damn you ESPN 360! This might come up a little short, but here's my post-game tidbits anyway.

So the Ducks did not look good out there tonight. They got outplayed in every aspect of the game, and they didn't work as hard as Calgary did. Simply put, the Flames moved their legs and the Ducks did not. It resulted to the fact, that the Flames had the bounces going their way, while most of time Ducks just ended up standing still, looking silly. It was kind of weird to see how little the Ducks put effort in to this game. Truly important two points on the line, and they just came flatout terrible on this one. Who knows? Was it the fact that maybe everyone expected Getzlaf to play, and when he didn't, it turned out like this. The team's offence definitely looked like they missed their leader. Tonight, nobody could not step up into the role of the catalyst, which Getzlaf almost always is. Tough game to lose, especially when it came down like this.

Troy Bodie scored the only goal for the Ducks, by deflecting the point shot from captain Scott Niedermayer in to the net. Eric Nystrom later tied the game, by going hard to the net and beating Ducks netminder Jonas Hiller, and Jarome Iginla scored the final two goals, giving the Flames 3-1 win. In conclusion, Ducks defence once again showed, how horrible they can be when committing as many turnovers as they did. All while their offence mostly being able to create weak perimeter shots to the Flames net. Hopefully the guys can regroup tomorrow, and show a much more effort to win the final game before the break, against Edmonton.
