Reporter Showcases How Committed the Calgary Flames Are to Winning
The Calgary Flames had a crazy offseason, going through not one but TWO major break-ups in Johnny Gaudreau and Matthew Tkachuk. In response, GM Brad Treliving put together arguably the best summer of any GM - all things considered - and even improved his team. That is what I am talking about!
On the flip side, head coach Darryl Sutter is the ultimate motivator, and clearly he has this Flames team dialed in to start the 2022-23 season. The Flames are buzzing out of the gate, going 5-1 in their opening six games. After defeating the Pittsburgh Penguins 4-1 on Tuesday night, the Flames reportedly had their hardest bag skate under Sutter on Thursday. One would think, after the fact that most of the players would clock out. Not this team, though.
It has been said by people in the know, that this Calgary Flames team had a chip on its shoulder this season; both to do with Gaudreau and Tkachuk leaving and the way their season ended last year. This is a very hungry group, and this report only corroborates the previous sentiment.
Darryl Sutter won the Jack Adams Award last season as the NHL's best coach. Not that we needed extra reasoning, but Sutter was well-deserving of the honor and could be a shoe-in again this spring.
