This team actually looked quite good in those first 3 games under Sutter. They were skating hard, hitting, forechecking like crazy, and they even scored a few timely goals. Things were looking very promising.
Then came the 7-3 pounding at the hands of the Oilers, and they've looked completely broken ever since. It's like McDavid and Draisaitl completely crushed whatever confidence the Flames might have had. Similar to what happened against Colorado a couple of years ago.
