Doubt the Flames have too much issue with his creative side.
I coach kids and it's frustrating when kids don't pick up break out positioning, don't know where they are supposed to be etc ... can't imagine coaching a 21 year old that doesn't pick it up.

yeah I primarily talked about offense in my post, since he's been quite cold point-wise and I think confidence will help him be more productive in the scoring department. Defensively, I agree that it's a different story.
