The Calgary Flames lost to the Edmonton Oilers on Sunday evening by a 5-2 score. The game was the 2023 edition of the Heritage Classic, held with much pomp, circumstance, ballyhoo, and Nickleback, at Commonwealth Stadium. Unfortunately, the Flames weren’t up to snuff and dropped their fifth game in a row.
On Thursday’s edition of the FlamesNation After Burner, Ryan Pinder and Dean “Boomer” Molberg broke down all of the proceedings.
