Flames head coach Darryl Sutter says his team lacks emotion
On Thursday night, the Calgary Flames extended their losing streak to four-games, a season-high, after a 4-1 defeat to the Ottawa Senators. Head coach Darryl Sutter said that he thinks his team lacks emotion right now.
"The big thing is with our team, I'd like to get in some sort of rhythm of playing games. I don't think there's enough disappointment when they lose and just not enough emotion in our game right now," Sutter said.
He added, "We've got some guys that are on the ice for too many goals against the last little, while which is a concern. I just think the emotional level of our group has been lacking for a period of time now."
In those four losses, the Flames have only scored seven goals, while allowing twenty (six to Florida, four to Tampa Bay, six to Carolina, four to Ottawa).
The Flames will look to snap their four-game losing streak on Tuesday night when they host the red-hot Florida Panthers.
