I don't think Johnny's the issue with the Flames being down 3-1 because he isn't getting a lot of support from Monahan or Lindholm right now... though i don't disagree that he needs to stop complaining to the refs as that has been shown not to do anything... in fact it would not surprise me if its been a negative

surprisingly, what this series has shown to me at least is how slow the flames are, at least compared to the Avs.
I think the big thing is that our key guys are slow. Monahan, Tkachuk, Gio, Frolik. That's a lot of our offense either slowly getting up the ice or back. If our top end guys were fast and we had the cement leg-like Froliks, Gio's etc bringing up the rear it wouldn't be such a glaring issue.

Panarin, Skinner, Duchene are all fast offensive wizards and free agents. Frankly I think Jeff Skinner would be a great add to the Flames. He is only 26.
