And this is the big thing.
The roster is flawed but this coaching staff has them playing way below even that potential. I still think the overreaction to the Colorado loss is what set this franchise back.
Look how Tampa responded to their loss, and look how the Flames responded. Tampa stayed calm, knew they were on the right track and made small tweaks, the Flames panicked and tried to change identities to play heavier hockey and it just hasn’t worked.
I still don’t get how we lost to a Colorado team that was faster, more skilled, and more talented than us, and the takeaway was “We need to be bigger and play with more grit”.
