This is in reality the best efforts this Flames team can summon no matter how important the game is. They came out weak and fall behind the 8 ball. Tried their best (e.g. Zadarov, Tanev, Duheur) but fall short because the so call top players are underwhelming. Just look at the PP and the short handed goal against.
I am not looking forward to them making the playoffs because they will be embarrassed by the higher seeds. I look forward to a more competitive team with better hockey skills, hopefully before the new arena is built.
I still have hopes, but not for this current team roster and coaching staff.
