Nice write up. Re: the flames playing wound up tight, I think in part it's the early days of a new system. Almost every play has just a moment delay where it's like they are thinking about what to do. Especially the D. So many passes off skates and sticks because the check gets an extra half or full stride closer. And rarely hitting a F with speed. It probably goes hand in hand with confidence but I think the broken plays will just get a bit better each game. But there's a ways to go. Yeesh it gets scrambly at times.
