Where was the in zone coverage again? Flames casually skating and picking up skaters. It’s been a problem all year. The first goal vatrano too much time. Second goal Comtois no one even contests him as he’s all alone for a rebound. Mind you, the first the shot could have been controlled better but easy to day tough to do.

I think it’s a terrible synergy of suck with the in-zone team defence and uninspiring goalie play. I thought that breakaway save, another egregious turnover, would have woke them up.

Lindholm looks pedestrian, kadri looks selfish and dumb, mangiapane, looks to be out of sync, backlund can’t make passes again, toffoli with a bad turn over then transition coverage of the trailer and Coleman with a selfish penalty in a one goal game in must win game showing zero self control and discipline.

I don’t know how these guys aren’t amped up to play against a bottom feeder. These guys are head cases.
