Flames were undisciplined tonight. Other than that, they were solid tonight.

 

Something to hang their hat on heading into the break.

 

 

They match up really well against SEA. Which makes the loss at home earlier in the year feel costly, blew a two goal lead in the 3rd. How nice would those two points be right now?

The penalties were bad, but not the reason they scored 2.

Vladar was good and allowed the Flames to score more often.

The penalties messed up the bench more than anything.

Good statement game.

Could have perhaps used Duehr, but Lucic got better as the game went on.

4th line was not good at times, but you can guess why.

I liked Markstrom's celly with Vladar. He looked genuinely happy.

It's like the Kipper era in reverse when the team always played like hot garbage for the backup.

So strange.

 

Vldar is getting starts against tough opponents. 2nd gme in a B2B.

His worst performances were agains DAL, TOR and LAK.

But he is also unbeaten in regulation since November 29th.

 

The Flames don't do well when they get down a goal or two.

Even though the numbe of goals against is similar, it's when those goals are scored that make a difference.

Teams like NAS will shut down the D zone when they get a lead.

We get desperate when we get down a goal or two later in the game; low % shots.

 

Nobody is saying it from the room, but the team doesn't get overly worried about transition to offense with Vladar in nets.

They just go ahead abd score.  With Marky, they have to shut off offense to protect.

Or so it seems.  Like if we get a 2 goal lead, we stop looking to score.

With Vladar, it seems like we just continue with the same plan.
