You know honestly I thought they played pretty well in the first. Gaudreau seemed to have some jump and I thought Elliott looked really sharp. Tough bounce and a nice deflection was a tough break at the end of the period. Even so I thought again they came out in the second and we're playing fine. Then Elliott gives up the Kadri stinker and everything went to hell. Just s goal that cannot go in especially with a team this fragile. Add on the shorty and game over. A solid period and a half down the drain. The whole team has no confidence right now and it's frustrated to watch.
Something needs to change if they are going to save the season. Whether it's the system the coach or whatever. Fact of the matter is our best offensive players are not getting it done. Love the 3M line, but the flames will not be successful depending on them for the offence. They have three offensive guys on the back end that for whatever reason are not utilizing those skills to help create offence. System related or whatever that needs to change.
And wil they please sit Wideman. Wow he was awful tonight.
