Really?
If you do not think there were at least 5 situations where GG should have taken a timeout and didn't then I don't know if GG could do anything to bother you.
You are right other coaches hardly do it but hardly doesn't mean never and given the flames season of being bad but not blow out bad, they had more opportunities for such time outs.
I will never forget watching the puck drop at center ice after Frolik scored on his own net and seeing a group of players who needed a timeout more than anything. Guys had their heads down, Frolik wasn't even paying attention for the puck drop and GG is watching the ipad. 5 seconds later another one is in the back of our net and we lose.
You also understand that visor cleanings, goalie equiptment coming lose, broken sticks, etc are not always to give guys a rest after an icing, right? Its a players to have everyone regroup or as you call it, a "momentum timeout".
