It seemed to me that in the 3rd period when Buffalo started putting pressure on the Flames, whenever the Flames would cough up a puck, they did a really good job of coming back and cleaning up the mess. Have seen very little of this throughout the season, so far.
I was watching the Buffalo feed to start the game and one of the keys to the game they said was for Buffalo to bring a lot of pressure since the Flames are known for gift wrapping chances for their opponents. This is absolutely true and so unlike what I'd expect from a Sutter-coached team. Hopefully, they are starting to come around and will increasingly clean up that part of their game.
