Yep. And then a few east-west D to D passes just to be sure the other side is all set up.
Flames then move slowly up the ice. Player trying to cross the blue line is challenged and double-teamed. More often then not turnover and it goes the other way, or puck dumped in the corner, or a blind pass.
So tired of this. The roster is not being used to its strengths. Flames have D that can skate that are being used as plow horses.
Bring on the new coaching staff. Feels like such a wasted season.
