“Just not good enough from the start ’til the end,” echoed alternate captain Mikael Backlund. ”Just not a good enough team effort. I thought Pelts looked good out there. And other than that, we all have to be a lot better.”
“It sure looks like it,” replied Huberdeau, the only guy to slide a puck behind rookie netminder Jaxson Stauber. “They come in here and we know it’s not the best team in the league — they’re at the bottom of the standings — and we can’t disrespect that. That’s a lesson. They played well.” Calgary Flames forward Jonathan Huberdeau scores on Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Jaxson Stauber at the Scotiabank Saddledome in Calgary on Thursday, Jan. 26, 2023.The lone highlight for the hosts was a jaw-dropper of a goal by Huberdeau just before the first intermission. He picked up a pass in the slot, sidestepped defenceman Jake McCabe and capped that sequence with a filthy deke to his forehand.
On the next shift, with both Rasmus Andersson and Noah Hanifin caught up ice, Huberdeau found himself as the last man back to defend a two-on-one rush. Not ideal. Moments later, Sam Lafferty was polishing off a no-doubter and a backchecking Blake Coleman was crashing into the wall, lucky to avoid injury.
“Marky is playing really well as of late and we haven’t played good in front of him,” Backlund said. “We want to be a lot better next time he’s in.”
