First, you were playing a team that literally had their season hanging by a thread. Then (how lucky for the Flames!) you had their owner come out and make a statement that their coach/GM/chief waterboy wasn't going to be fired.
We all knew that whatever the Canucks are, you were getting every ounce of them, and we did.
What we also did, was keep it a tied game through 40 minutes despite being outshot by a hundred.
We are good at bending, not breaking and most nights (yes, thanks to Jacob Markstrom) we sure make the other team pull out teeth to score a few (normally 2 or less) goals.
So, the issue is, we need to generate more offense and score more goals. I still think a new coach (system) would be best for this in the short-term. I just don't think there is 1-2 players out there on the trade market that could come in to rectify that issue without us giving up other areas of needed strength
