Mid Season accounting...
Given the brutal start the Flames had, they needed to come up big the month before Christmas. They did.
Lately, the Flames are playing down to the competition. The PP is clicking, PK is better, 5 on 5 has taken a bit of a slide. The Flames aren't executing like they did during their winning streak.
Right now is where the Flames need to reset the season, and not rest on their laurels. There cannot be anymore excuses that the players don't know the coach's new system.
The leadership and grit, that Flames management is so high on, must come through with disciplined play. Coach's need to make sure everyone's on the same page. It is time to take that next step. If not, then dust off the golf clubs early again this season.
