Vladar played the full 60 minutes and was excellent, standing tall in the team's fifth game of the preseason.
Dillon Dube was the lone goal scorer for the Flames.
An NHL-laden Flames lineup skated to a 4-0 victory over a mostly AHL-ish Oilers crew Wednesday night at the Scotiabank Saddledome.
Friday in Edmonton, the homeside iced a veteran lineup, including Connor McDavid and Leon Draisaitl as well the team's big off-season acqusition, Jack Campbell, between the pipes.
The Flames had some notable names playing up front including Jonathan Huberdeau, Tyler Toffoli and Dube. Check out the Flames lineup below.
Just 3:51 into the game, the Flames went to the penalty-kill when Juuso Valimaki was sent off for holding Draisaitl.
The Oilers swarmed with four shots and few more quality chances that didn't hit the net but Vladar stood tall, with an assist from Rasmus Andersson who saved a rebound chance.
Calgary got their first powerplay of the game at 6:54 but it was the Oilers who would strike shorthanded, Kailer Yamamoto battling to win a puck behind the Calgary net and then skating out and feeding it cross-ice, the puck going off the stick of Vladar and right onto the tape of Draisaitl who put it home on the back door.
The Flames tied it up 15:49, the puck bouncing around and finding its way right onto the stick of Dube all alone out front and he made no mistake.
Vladar was exceptional in the first, making 12 saves in the opening 20, including on a point-blank attempt by Ryan Nugent-Hopkins.
