Oh sure, the Flames have rid their game of the mind-numbing giveaways that marked the opening of their campaign. They’re focusing more on defence, and they’re forechecking harder, which has translated into a windfall of wins that keeps the Flames atop the league’s list as its hottest team.
Shortly after Gaudreau’s ninth of the year, the Flames found themselves down two men against a Leafs power play that had been operating at over 35 per cent under new coach Sheldon Keefe.However, with Mikael Backlund manning the top and Mark Giordano and Michael Stone working down low, the trio helped David Rittich stop a group that features John Tavares, Mitch Marner, Auston Matthews, William Nylander and Tyson Barrie.
“Stoney and Gio blocking shots – it was a real big effort for us. It sure makes the game different when you come out of a 5-on-3 clean as opposed to them scoring a goal.” Winning 17 of a possible 18 points of late, the Flames obviously have plenty of momentum, thanks to scoring from, well, everyone.
