SNAPSHOTS: Flames squander opportunity with overtime loss to Coyotes
“It’s tough, we’ve been in this spot before. It’s getting old,” Flames centre Mikael Backlund told reporters in Arizona. “We battled back, but after a big win against the Senators , we should come out with more jump and take charge of the game and play better than we did.The OT loss leaves them five points back of the Jets with 14 games left in the regular season. The Nashville Predators are sitting between the Flames and Jets, too. The path is only getting harder.
“We’ve got to come out with a better effort, obviously,” Huberdeau told reporters in Arizona. “We did the same thing against Anaheim and tonight here. We’ve got to get. We got one point, but I think tonight we really needed both.” “You know what, to be quite honest, you play a complete game, you shouldn’t have that many overtime games,” Flames head coach Darryl Sutter told reporters in Arizona on Tuesday. “That’s one part of it, the other part is you need guys to make a difference. You win faceoffs, you have control of the puck, you get back to make a play … That hasn’t been consistent enough, that’s for sure.”
