I don't think flames have been figured out. I think teams are in playoff mode of tighter defensive postures. The flames find themselves more tightly checked - more cross checks; more leaning; more getting in the lanes. In response the flames have retreated to the perimeter.
Can Monahan elevate his game to center like Crosby or toews or bergeron that's willing to get his hands dirty and grind it out and fight for space? Is lindholm? Is backlund? Is Johnny? If not, the playoffs will be short.
