the thing the eastern media (TSN/HNIC) keeps missing is the emerging skill on the backend. Someone above alluded to the Flames top four, but three guys are really doing a job at all ends of the ice.
When you have three guys that don't panic in their own zone, and consistently out "wait" the forecheck to open up better and quicker paths up the ice the team's game changes on a dime.
We've been seeing this for awhile now. Game in and game out.
