Yes let's blame the problems on skills.  |
New Jersey also has about 30+ goals on us.
Have you even seen them play? They’re built for the new NHL unlike the Flames. They’re one of the fastest teams in the league and they have depth scoring between all 4 lines while our bottom 6 could be right up there with some of the worst teams in the NHL.
There’s a reason we’ve only been out of the 1st round 2 times over the last 29 years. Management consistently cannot keep up with the times and are building teams that are outdated. But yes, let’s continue to look for more grit and toughness and character because it’s been so successful for this franchise the last 3 decades.
