I think you can prepare players to play under pressure by practicing at a higher pace. GG's practices are notably slower and less intense than other teams.
It's honestly no surprise that this team crumbles under pressure, they're not prepared for it, which leads to bad decisions, poor passes, scrambling around the defensive zone, falling behind in the offensive zone, and to more penalties.
Doesn't that all sound like the Flames?
That's not on the players, that's on preparation and practice, which is dictated by the coaches.
