The Flames just look lost to me. They didn't have any of the play last night. A shift here or there, and two powerplays that looked somewhat dangerous, but otherwise they were out chanced and out played by a team that was winless coming in.
The effort seems down, or at very least misplaced in individual effort.
Hard working teams can be effective. Hard working teams that evolve and add talent can move up the standings.
Hard working teams that add talent and then stop what got them there go nowhere.
