Huska's system is just plain bad.
I want a rebuilding coach to teach the team to play a better system that whatever insanity Huska preaches in the neutral zone. It's just plain bad.

I apologize for my insanity.
I talked about being defensively stout in terms of high danger chances against. Per Natural Stat Trick, the Flames have given up the 9th fewest high danger chances against, with 143. But 4 of the teams ahead of them, have played 1 fewer game. So, I’d say the numbers suggest they give up an above average amount of volume but a low amount of quality. That’s good for the goalies, and that’s defensively stout from my perspective.
I guess my opinion could be changed if Kevin Woodley says the Flames play a style that’s difficult for the goalies.
