To me one of the biggest issues in this series is the Flames hesitance to play their forecheck game because they don't want to get torched by McDavid.
It's left them with only one guy deep and that's really killed the team's pressure offence.
The top line specifically does most of their damage with all three players below the hash marks, but now you usually see only one.
Maybe go back to their game and just hope that you hem him in more often than not.
