That’s a skill issue. Whether lack of ability to finish or straight lack of talent...it is the Flames biggest issue.
To fully understand the problem , Gaudreau , Monahan and Tkachuk , their most talented offensive players all had career years.
“Testicular fortitude” is way down the list of Flame problems.

Surprised there aren’t hundreds of people thanking this post. This team still has a talent gap IMO. Mostly up front but the so called offensive defensemen after Gio and Hamilton don’t score at all.
A different coach might help for sure. But it runs deeper than that.
That’s why I roll my eyes at suggestion of trading Gaudreau. I can’t imagine a return that would improve the team unless it’s another tear down.
