Well, depends on what you consider struggling
Like Sutter said, the Flames didn’t have elite game breaking talent and need to play by committee
Well, Markstrom was playing behind D
- either without Tanev, or with Tanev with dislocated shoulder
- with Zadorov having broken ribs
- Kylington with a shoulder injury
They were lined up against a team with top offensive players, the game was wide open and mistakes were made
Other than the first game and the soft OT winner (let’s ignore the cough up), did he really struggle, or did he play behind an outmatched team and get lit up by star talent?
Smith is facing the same kind of thing and getting the same kind of results, no?
