McDavid has to love playing against the Flames. We are what appears to be the only team in the league that doesn't alter our system/gameplan when facing a generational talent.
"We just gotta stick to our game"
No, dummy. You just gotta shut down Connor McDavid. Stop believing that your system is stronger than a player that only comes along once every 10 or 20 years. No system is.
It is not an indictment on your system, if you alter it when facing a superstar. It is a necessary action to take.
I have to believe that McDavid has more points and breakaways against the Flames than any other team in the league.
