Wow. Isles got Sutter’ed.
Only watched the third, and that’s probably when NY would have shown some fatigue, but my goodness the Flames were absolutely suffocating them. Absolutely no time or space due to a relentless forecheck, and that was with the Flames up by a goal.
Backlund’s line was especially good — causing turnovers, creating chances, and just hounding them all over the ice. I think we may have found something special here.
Outscoring opponents 16-4 on this home stand. Bring on Columbus.
