Haven't been a fan so far but to be fair to GG these types of systems take time. My worry coming into the season was the Flames struggling to adapt and therefore getting off to a bad start. I was hopeful since we open the season with 5 games against poor teams from last year we would still play well. Dropping these first 3 games stings. The fact the team had a pretty bad training camp with their entire top line having only one player for one game also really hurts things. The fact Elliott has stunk up the place for 2 games has also been a let down.
It feels like the Flames do okay limiting scoring chances but the ones they give up are grade A breakaways or tap ins which makes the defensive look horrible at times.
