The struggles continued for the Calgary Flames Thursday night as they fell 3-1 to the Lightning in Tampa Bay.

They're 0-and-2 so far on their four game Eastern road swing.

Sam Bennett, with his fourth of the season, scored the Flames goal in the loss.

It's right back into the fire Friday night for the Flames as they head to Washington to face the Capitals, who sit third in the NHL's Eastern Conference.

The Flames wrap up the trip Sunday night in Chicago.
