Maybe Flames win Tomorrow and he has 2 points and we all eat crow, but we gave up a lot to get him and its fair to expect a little more.
Exactly. At the end of the day execution is all that matters. No one is going to be counting scoring chances at the end of the series and then deciding who advances based on that. The Flames need his goals. Hopefully they are coming.
