Like what? Seriously. We keep saying that player X should not be on line Y or on the team etc. PP should have this or that. Or shouldn't have XYZ. We made very specific points. Where are the pro GG points? Anything other than advanced stats? Show me what he did that is better that expected?
Johnny will Johnny even if Gilbert makes a return. Smith playing god like to start the season? What is he making better here exactly?
I won't dismiss the possession stats completely, he really improved them. Full credit. But that has brought little results in the standings.
Is our top line better? - no
Is our second line better? - no
3rd and 4th lines? - no
Is the D better? - no
Special teams? - terrible
Compete level? - awful
Consistency? - 0
Do we win more? - Yes, slightly, but look at the roster.
Most importantly, are we a threat in the playoffs? Safe to say that every team in the west would love to draw the Flames in the playoffs. Team with no identity and spotty effort. Terrible D and special teams.
