And we see those nightly.
Kadri is either selfish as hell or very limited in what he sees on the ice.
Not sure I agree that they're being mandated at all (and I'm tired of Sutter too).

Yeah, those things happen in a game, they aren't robots. It's a question of frequency and consistency - do the Flames dump it in less, more, or about the same as most other teams? On rushes, do they take it to the outside less, more, or about the same as most teams? Do they fly the zone as much, or less than most teams? Do they rim it around the boards instead of passing through the middle more or less than most teams? Etc.
