The Avs are a powerhouse, getting a win was probably never in the cards. It's not getting any easier with the Leafs next.

They look like they were told pre-game that they're an inferior team and their only hope is to execute a flawless, structured, defensive-minded game and let the Avs come to them, and hope to score on a PP or something.
Then the shackles came off after the 2-0 goal and they finally were allowed to push the pace and ####ing play.
Just what it looks like. And it's probably not far from the truth.

A high energy first shift here for the Flames would go a long way

If you are comparing an orange and a baseball just because they are round then it’s not a useful comparison.

This team just kinda sucks.
Wolf just hides so many warts. Hanley playing 20+ mins a night? Jesus Christ, healthy scratch on at least 25 other teams.

That’s ignoring game effects. Two goal leads being dangerous is a cliche for a reason

The Avs have lost a lot of games this season.
Not like it's a once in a blue moon occurrence. Flames just seem to play them like freshly neutered dogs for some reason.

Andersson a simple miss. Unreal. Fine, no goals but deserve one or two with a bit of luck.

Im sure Huska realises this team isn't capable of scoring, so the defensive system is to support the defense and goaltender, leading to more 1 goal games and lower GF.
If he coached this team to play like the Oilers or Avalanche they are a bottom 5 team. You lean into your strengths to get wins.
You can't just create goals without players who can score.

They lost a lot of games before they fixed their goaltender problem
