Whenever it does happen, it will be so exciting to have someone making dynamic plays on defence. It is so, so rare for that to happen this season (or pretty much any season) for the flames. No one makes skilled plays on the blueline. Even tape-to-tape passes are rare. I’m not blaming the players themselves. It’s a skill that is very coveted in the NHL and few defencemen have it.
It’s especially tough in a flames system that puts puck back to the defence a lot.
