Cassidy took too long to shorten the bench, there were passengers in the forward group tonight.
I'm a broken record on this but I just don't see Cotter as an NHL player 5 on 5. He's shown that most of last season, preseason this year and the first fourteen games this season. But he wasn't the only one tonight.
Not worried about the result tonight but the LW with the Stone line needs to be addressed at some point. When healthy, Howden with Karlsson and Amadio is a great third line if we have a LW that can slot with Stephenson (who needs to find his game again) and Stone.
