The defense looks good on paper but has been quite poor. And now one of them has asked for a trade.
It's a mess, but it's all on the players. The giveaways, the brain dead penalties, the gaffes like Zadorov tonight. Unforced errors galore, stuff you learn in novice or pee wee. Tough to coach that. The players need to take the heat.

I'm not saying this is a contending team, but they are better than this.
The Flames went from a legit coach who was a hard ass right back to bargain bin hunting again. There are lots of good experienced coaches, with track records in the NHL who the Flames could have hired.
Why can we not try another good coach? Is Edwards that cheap?
