Perfect example: Sam gets it behind the goal line and has no idea what to do with it. Stick handles standing still, stripped ..icing
Second unit has no effective QB. I don't know the solution, unless you put Lindholm on it and maybe elevate Neal, just to even out the IQ.

Lucky to get a tie after this period. Dallas is extremely fast in counter attack. Need better D from all in the second.

They aren't waiting for anything. The problem is the way they are set up - no one is in a position to shoot. Everyone is in a good position to pass, and they can pass it around like crazy. But no one is set up for a one-timer, so they never get any good shots off.

It is so frustrating to watch.

Kylingtons skating benefits the world. No confirmation bias there. Thats been his #1 asset since he was a tater tot. And it's beautiful at the NHL level.

I was all for keeping Stone for injury depth but it seems we might have it even without him.... I'm a Stone fan but I think you move him

Where is Versteeg at? He’d sure help that unit.

Don't want to trade anyone. just sucks because you just know one of Kylngton or Valiamki go back to the farm at some point. And neither deserve it.

Only issue I had with Flames PP is looked like on a few occasions Gio could have walked in 10 or 15 feet and blasted a shot.

Dallas has had way more good chances than the Flames so far.

Pretty pathetic showing from the top two lines so far. Seems like they thought it would be easy.

Still no reason the Flams can't win this though. Just have to up the effort.

Not every win is going to be a Rembrandt.

Sometimes you squeak out a finger painting or noodle art.
