That said Bowness has suffocated his team to the point where all they have at this point is the hope of getting the first goal to hold on for a SO win. They just have nothing going on offensively and when they get behind it shows as the last few games have been pretty easy to close out for the Flames.

Giving them credit and liking it are two different things!
The most important part of last night's game was they switched the game two script and found a way in the third period. That's huge for the mental game of this team.
