A shutout.

Yeah, that “good save” Cassie talked about on Backlund was basically right into his pads - he didn’t move.

You can’t score on a set Smith - it plays into his main strength - he’s big. Need to make him move, make him come out farther to challenge.

The most common refrain from a PBP guy during a Flames Game?

"<insert Flame player> misses the net!"

Froese is 38.5% in his games

Lindholm is 52.8%

But sure it was for faceoffs.

People just need to admit the coach sucks. Doesn’t mean the players are off the hook, just means the coach sucks too.

At the very least, they should do plays that make Smith come out of the net so he can Smith

D zone faceoff. Froese was 50% last game, and 100% on that side of the ice.

Lindholm is better early on, but is a career sub 50% guy IIRC.

ETA: I probably would have gone with Lindholm but what I’m saying is that there are reasons a person can think of if they put a little effort in, it’s not just out of the blue.

Is this the BOA? No emotion from either side. Really missing the fans.

You would think this team would know that you just have to let weak floaters go from the blue line on Smith to score. Of course you have to actually get the puck in goal for that to work.

I’m gonna be honest - I think all the wannabe coaches here aren’t as smart as they think they are.
