The sky isn't falling in Calgary.

Yes, the Flames are winless to start the NHL season, having suffered two losses in a home-and-home series with the Vancouver Canucks.

And, yes, Calgary captain Jarome Iginla, who finished third in the NHL with a career-high 98 points last season, is still looking for his first point of the current campaign and is a minus-3.

But, no, Calgary isn't panicking, and the club looks to get on track Tuesday night when it hosts the Colorado Avalanche.

What do the Flames have to do to win some games? Get back to basics, according to Iginla, especially with the man advantage where Calgary is 0-for-13 to start the season.

"I don't know if I'll take it upon myself. We all want to be better. I want to be better, have to be better," Iginla told the Calgary Sun. "I look at the power play, I get to play a lot of minutes on it, and we haven't produced at all. One goal in each of those games, especially early, would have been a big difference.

"You don't go into it thinking, 'I've got to do this. I've got to do that,' or you start pressing. It's about getting back to the things I want to do — get skating, drive to the net, hitting the net with shots.

"I look at myself and know all the other guys around the room are looking at themselves, too, and are finding ways to get that first win."

Iginla's lack of productivity aside, some Calgary players are hitting the mark. Off-season acquisitions Rene Bourque and Michael Cammalleri both had a goal and an assist in Saturday's 5-4 overtime loss.

The Flames can also take solace in the fact that Tuesday's opponent is struggling just as badly as they are.

The Avalanche dropped their first two games of the season — after a 5-4 defeat to visiting Boston on Thursday, Colorado fell 3-2 at Edmonton on Sunday — and are now in danger of getting off to their worst start to a season since the 1998-99 campaign when they lost four in a row.

Like the Flames, the Avs aren't in panic mode.

"I mean, of course there's no panic in here," Avalanche captain Joe Sakic told the Denver Post.

"We've had bad bounces, but over the course of a year, you're going to have some go against you and some for you. You can't let that affect the way you're going to play the game. If you're not playing well, you might get a couple breaks and get a couple cheap wins, but you're going to lose most of them."

The Flames host Edmonton Friday and then visit the Oilers the next night (CBC, 10 p.m. ET) in a home-and-home series between the Northwest Division rivals.
