We are playing much worse.  Can't connect simple passes.  Going offsides more than usual.


 

ya, I see that too. But it’s what I mean, they’re making the Flames look bad. Gotta tighten up the puck support.

This game is garbage. Just think for a second, who’s playbook does this game mirror? Sutter or Bowness? It’s midnight here and I’m fading… Kenan Thompson Reaction GIF by NBC


 

frustration! 
 

need to make the short passes. 
 

Gotta break through. I noticed players are doing some flybys on shots and not stopping for rebounds. But the stars are also doing a really good job of shadowing everyone. Think we need more movement to make them skate too. 
 

what do we need to do? Make more crisscross play and drops? Get them having to switch checks to confuse them?

Sutter needs to haul out the blender.

No lines able to get any sustained pressure.

Backlund is trash tonight.

Stink getting stuck to Toffoli.

 

Does Backlund have a 2nd gear?

He's riding the clutch like a granny.

No torque.

 


 

funny thing is, Backlund has been good and bad! He’s had moments of bad then good 

I want to get Mangiapane more ice (room). Who gives him that? 
 

i feel Toffoli seems to get in his way. I’d take Toffoli off the first Pp too.

The Mangiapane - Backlund - Toffoli line hasn't worked in a whole month.  Time to mix it up.

I believe it was Sutter that said if you’re not getting hit, you’re losing. We’re not going to the hard areas. We’re playing comfortable. Easy peasy. No one in front of the net taking away the goalies eyes. No one for tips. No one for rebounds. No puck support. No flame will have an ice pack tonight - that’s a problem.
