Beyond the boxscore – G6: Shotgun starts go a long way

I’m going to be honest: I had zero idea I’d be talking about a team that was 4-1-1 after 6 games, but here we are. I was always adamant this was a playoff team in the Pacific Division (and there’s lots of runway left), but the way the Flames have been playing gives me confidence that could hold up. This isn’t some random burst either – the Flames were rock solid to end last year after getting extended practice time – this team we’re watching might have “learned how to win games” as coach Sutter says.
