Sutter must be scratching his head. Flames doing fine in league standings, but it's how they are doing it! First in scoring, HORRIBLE in goals against (only Tampa Bay, Florida, and the Leafs are worse), getting outshot by 10 goals per game. Shoot little, score lots, get scored on lots... you would think they had a team full of very selective snipers who were scared to take the body or play D! Really doesn't sound like a Sutter team! I know it's early and will likely change. Just really odd. One thing he did that has really paid off... PRACTICING THE POWER PLAY! It has saved them and made them a power for sure.
