Forgive me for not wanting to call it a bad game after one period. Or the beginning of a slump or whatever. They've played bad periods before and come out with good efforts later.

Onto the 3rd. Wonder if the Panthers can play infraction-free hockey for 60 minutes. If the Flames keep skating it will be tough.

Well I would argue they didn’t in the first 20 mins of the game... pretty sure I several trips in the first from the Panthers

True. Needs to think the game faster, also.

All tied up heading into the best period? I'll take it!
Amazing how the Flames can flip the switch and take it all over. But this kind of game is still an issue it seems the team throughout seems focused on fixing. This team in full tilt for 60 minutes a game is the deadliest thing going.

Great 10 minute stretch.
Domination, still allowing some odd breakdowns and missed assignments. The swapped D pairs might be a part of that though.

Well considering they were down 2-0 that period ended nicely.
Any team can beat any team in this league

The best part of Elias Lindholm's game is his lightning-like release.
The worst part of Sam Bennett's game is that he takes five seconds to get a shot off.

I just meant infraction-free according to the refs.

So accurate.
In the words of Grapes: “the net hasn’t moved in 200 years. Shoot it”.

Well Lindholm has shown that you can improve your shot. Sam really needs to work on his.

Elias can change it up though. Sometimes he snaps it fast, sometimes he gives a hesitation but still fires it home, like his PP goal the other night.

Yes, that's strategic, but once Lindholm decides to shoot, it's gone.
Maybe Bennett can work on it, but right now, his shot buffers like it's an Android phone from 2009.

I think it’s his lack of confidence right now, second guessing everything he does. He needs to just react not over think.
