Calgary Hockey Now’s Trevor Neufeld pointed out four Calgary Flames players who have struggled in December. He didn’t even get past both Slovak attackers.
The overseas author first devoted himself to Dillon Dube and Jonathan Huberdeau. According to him, the other two players do not fall into the same category, because their roles in the team are not so prominent and it is possible that their statistics are also affected by injuries.
As the third, he mentioned Adama Ružička, who was only a healthy substitute in the last match.
“After Jimmy Vesey’s questionable hit from Rangers on October 24, Slovak Adam Ružička struggled dramatically to find consistency. The 24-year-old has one goal and four assists in 23 games since the incident, and only three assists in 11 December matches,” noted Neufeld.

At the end of the overview, Martin Pospíšil figured, although he can get under the opponent’s skin, but lately his offensive productivity has stopped.
“It would be understandable if the former third-round draft pick hadn’t already proven that she was capable of scoring goals. Pospíšil debuted in the NHL in style, scoring three goals and two assists in the first seven games. “Four of those five points gave the Flames the lead or tied the game,” Neufeld said.
“Since then? An amazing goal against Florida on December 18th and a secondary assist on Nazem Kadri’s touchdown against the Golden Knights on December 12th. Two points in his last 16 games is not a good enough pace for him to maintain his position in the top six of the attack for a long time.
