Yes, he is wrong. The Flames are still a work in progress with a lot of young players still learning how to play a disciplined game of strong puck support in the best league in the world. Against possession monsters like the Sharks, of course they are going to still look like a less dominant team, but I thought they were fine tonight—not great, but certainly not bad.
The bottom line is that they look VASTLY improved on last season, and there have been numerous times this season in which the Flames appear to be on the cusp of joining the NHL's top teams. It's not a finished product yet, but it is definitely coming, and I for one am very pleased with how the team has improved as a group this season.
