It goes without saying that the start to the season has been lacklustre. The team is clearly lacking confidence and for some reason, despite strong depth on the blue line is leaking goals like nobody’s business.
The hat-trick hero for the Calgary Flames in Edmonton, Michael Frolik pointed out to Aaron Vickers that their late win could be the confidence boost the side need:
“Hockey is about confidence and hopefully this win can give us more confidence and that we can have the same effort that we had in Edmonton. We were forechecking, we were battling hard, so we need to just carry it over and build our confidence.
