As much as we hate Bieksa as a Nucklehead and a Ducks, he's on the money about the Flames. The D has been soft ever since Regehr got traded. Actually, the Flames D got soft when JBo and Butler were introduced to the Flames. Besides Tkachuk, the forwards are fairly ineffective late in the season and into the playoffs when the going gets tough. Nobody wants to get into the dirty areas - well maybe except for Lucic and Bennett - if and when they show up. Skilled buttery soft team!
