Mike Smith, who entered the game with a .950 save percentage in starting the first four games, was pulled from Calgary’s net after giving up five goals on 22 shots in 47:48 of work. Eddie Lack mopped up the final eight minutes. He gave up Wideman’s goal on six shots.

The Flames were shut out for the second time this season. After being blanked 3-0 in Edmonton in their season-opener, the Flames had won three straight.

Calgary limited the Senators to hardly any dangerous chances in the first period before the visitors struck in the final minute on a pretty passing play off the rush.
