At this point the Flames have to play about .800 hockey to get into the post-season. Ya. Not going to happen. Playing tough competition in Pittsburgh, here are a few key takeaways.
- The D tightened things up led by the Captain. They need to continue upping their game though down the stretch.
- The top line is abysmal. Gaudreau can’t generate chances by himself. A RW would help and right now GG only solution is Troy Brouwer. Just senseless. This is what happens when you have a player run room. The popular players, regardless of their play on ice, get preferential treatment.
