I think what applies to Bennett can also be applied to the Flames team. Yes, he's experienced a surge from the trade itself, but I think it's also a confidence issue that the Flames are lacking as a whole.
Mony, Chucky, Backlund are not as bad as they appear to be playing right now, and a run of sustained success will lead to a confidence boost that could make this team look elite. I don't know if it will come in time this season or not, but if this team shakes off the dark clouds hanging over them, we'll all be saying how it looks like a completely a different team.
The power of positivity, and it will seem like pucks are going in, and bounces are going in our favour.
