The Flames tend to work a 1-3-1 system, with one blueliner at the top of the zone, one net-front forward working around the blue paint, and three forwards set up across the middle to facilitate puck movement
I expect to see better and quicker puck movement this year with fewer shots taken from the blue line. I hate blue line shots as that usually gives the goalie too much time. It's also nice to see the Flames actually practicing the PP. I can't believe they never practiced it last year... but of course it showed. I wonder whose decision that was.
