It's all about Leadership
Gio has these guys believing they can beat anyone. I live in Edmonton but cheer for the Flames and it is incredible to watch how these two teams react to being down a goal or two. I was going back and forth between the Calgary Jersey game last night versus Edmonton Chicago. It was over the minute the the second goal went in against Edmonton. They packed their tent. You could see it on the bench, you could see it in who came out of the corner with the puck. Calgary will not give up.
So what would you do if you are Edmonton? You can't fire the coach.....again and again! The guys are too young, have not been taught how to win and what it takes to play as a team. Even Dallas said after the game that everyone started playing as individuals after the second goal and the worst perpetrator of this in Hall!
It's sad but it's all about leadership. I hope Calgary makes the playoffs, they deserve it so far and Gio will and should win the Norris.
Go Flames go!
