Agreed, just go back to putting a ton of pucks on net and get an ugly one.

I'm liking the flames changing the PP system. It seems like there trying to use Hamilton as the one timer similar to Ovi and Stamkos.

Kinda think that's part of the problem. They are throwing everything into the middle where there are 25 sets of legs. Everything is getting blocked.

They need to employ some perimeter play with some east west passing before a shot. That's the reality of today's NHL and goalies.

I feel like there is no playing down low below the hash marks, they want to keep everything up high. But when they do that the forwards never really have to cheat down low so the point isn't open and doesn't have time.

Also their zone entry sucks.

I think I'm going to keep track of Wideman turnover/miss the net tracker for each game

Don't get swept up in the Wideman hate. He's not as bad as everyone is saying he is.

He is just the current whipping boy. Just wait till Raymond plays 10 or so games in a row... Wideman will look like Bobby Orr.

Really enjoying this game so far. There is a lot of back and forth and there is plenty of skill on display.

Shouldn't have been a penalty. Chicago was offside.

This PP is scary. And the PK is scary. Not a good combo.
