The Calgary Flames welcomed the Vancouver Canucks to town on Sunday evening to begin each club’s exhibition calendar. The Flames, being the home team, dressed many of their expected regulars. The Canucks, being the travelling team, brought some AHL bodies and players battling for NHL depth spots. On paper, it looked like a mismatch.
It was.
The Flames beat Vancouver by a score of 10-0.
The Flames had some jump early on and got out to a fairly early lead. Jordan Oesterle flung a puck from the left point. The shot glanced off the stick of Canucks forward Sheldon Dries, then off the skate off Canucks defender Jett Woo, and past Canucks goaltender Arturs Silovs to give the Flames a 1-0 lead.
