<p>Andersson&#8217;s goal came on the Flames&#8217; 31st shot of Monday&#8217;s game. The Flames entered Game 4 with just three goals on 96 shots in their first-round playoff series against Dallas.</p>
<p>The Flames remain ahead of the Stars by a 1–0 score — and lead 38 to 21 in the shots column — in the dying minutes of the second period. Currently down 2–1 in the series, the Flames are looking to break an eight-game losing streak when trailing in the playoffs.</p>
