I think the lines should look more like:

Gaudreau-Backlund-Monahan
Lucic-Lindholm-Dube
Mangiapane-Bennett-Ryan
Rinaldo-Quine-Reider

Peters didn’t get them going either.

After our best season since the 80s.

It may not be the coach.

The dump and chase is actively going against the Flames. It's just starting the Stars' rush. Not creating any turnovers on the forecheck.

What does it take to call a hook?

Stick up in the hands, no call, despite the week "hooking" call going the other way in the first.
Just garbage

Gaudreau skating well, when he's not being hooked.

They started the dump and chase when they realized the drop passes were being picked off. They need a new strategy.

Yup. Lucic and Bennett can dump and chase, but for the rest of our forwards, it just gives possession away.

It also eliminates the transition game. The Flames are a transition team, not a dump and chase team

No call for tripping Dube. I guess whistles have been put away.
