I dont see them excuses. We lost. But, I'm not sure if you've noticed but Flames fans are highly critical and analytical.

It makes perfect sense to me to look at that series and try and understand why we lost so mistakes arent repeated.

Some of that is on Sutter. Sometimes you have to bite the bullet and adapt and do something you generally find distasteful, ie, switch up your goalies, even if just for a little bit.

But further, I'm really happy with the Weegar addition (and hopefully extension) because I really look at the fall of Tanev as the stray string that unraveled the entire team.

And your team cannot be that fragile.
