Not gonna be too mad about this one. They were clearly tired and pushed back pretty well in the 2nd half of the game, just couldn't get one through Saros. I think Stone and Zadorov being out there was because the Hanifin-Andersson pairing were BRUUUTAL in this one. Hanifin especially.
Good : Kadri, our best forward. Linemates did absolutely nothing to help him out. Strong night for Zadorov. Tanev also very solid.
Pretty good : Lindholm's line were all decent. Had some good chances. Markstrom was fine, but not sure why he got so far off his post on the 2nd GA. Weegar? I dunno man, get him on the PP. He's got great transition numbers but never seems to be actually IN the offensive zone.
Not good : Backlund line struggled, every pass into feet, every play flubbed. Stone was fine really, just slow. Andersson.
Bad : Powerplay. Lucic like you're a goon man. Go be a goon.
4th line was junk, Lewis especially. Young guys weren't much better. Please Free Ruzicka and get Pelletier in.
Awful : Hanifin trash, just mindless rims and giveaways. Also had a chance to spring a shorthanded 2 on 1 if he picked his head up but instead iced it with lots of time and space. Huberdeau was also complete junk, turned it over every time he touched it. Stop trying to pass it through two defenders EVERY SINGLE SHIFT.
