Great win, Smith's best game as a Flame, and you can just see the confidence oozing out of him. I have been amongst the many who has doubted Peters handling of the goalies, and apparently there is a reason he makes $2 mil per season and I type on a message board.
Good news is that even after a 4-0 win, there is room for improvement. I thought there were too many turnovers in the defensive zone, and failures to clear the zone that created some of the few legit chances Colorado had. And that ill-considered pass up the middle from Backs. Yikes.
No complaints though, solid win, and a great kickoff to the campaign. 15 more to go.
