The playoffs get faster. The Flames are getting burned AGAIN by the other teams' top players who can fly. Mackinnon, Connor and even Ehlers.

You need your top players to be able to skate to stretch the opposition defense and to pressure them.

When you best "skater" is Bennett, you are in big trouble.

Was hoping Dube had taken that next step after all the hyperbole during training camp, but looks like he still has a ways to go.
Offensively I'd like to see Dube between Tkachuk and Mangi. But defensively we still need Backs on that line for now.
