They can't go back to 25-5 next game.
Nurse is deservedly getting heat, but imo Ceci's lack of speed was the thing that kept putting them in bad situations. Goals 1 and 2 are examples there.
Unlike LA, Vancouver loves to fly the zone, and this is absolute poison for a pair that's horribad in transition. Despite playing together for 2 and a half years, they still have seemingly zero chemistry and constantly fail to hand off assignments.
Please just get Stecher in there. Nurse-Ceci and Kulak-Vinny handled LA's size well, but Vancouver's speed exposed them. Odd fact of the night: 4 dmen played under 20 min, so it looks like Knob and Coffee didn't like what they saw too.
Also while Janmark didn't do the worst job next to McDavid and Hyman, I still don't like it. You're robbing the bottom 6 of one of its key pieces to have them do a meh job in the top 6.
If you're not confident in Holloway, I'd still rather have Perry or Foegele in the top 6. Any word on Henrique?
