The pass to another guy on the empty net is like an unwritten rule among players, especially with a multiple goal lead. If it's a 2-1 game, I expect that Dube would have put that in the net much quicker to seal the game. With a 2 goal lead, he took his time until Taffoli was able to catch up and moved the puck over to him.

If Sutter says anything to him it will be that in a playoff situation you need to get that puck in the net.

I will say that the Flames have been far better at that this year than last year. They often didn't get the EN goal due to farting around with the puck. I don't remember it costing them any games per se, but I do see them finishing a lot more of these this year. They might be pretty close to a franchise high for empty netters. Which is a good thing because it means you had a lot of leads late in games, and you closed them out.
