Well spent all morning trying to log in and just get here in time for us to shit the bed, massively.
Tomorrow is pretty much a must win.
I felt we actually controlled play in the 3rd period very well. Husso stood on his head. We could've easily had several goals there.
Not sure why Josi decided to press with Carrier still on the ice and two and a half minutes left in the game. It cost us a point.
It's the same trap Forsberg falls into when he starts trying to do it all himself. When he starts forcing the play it usually ends in a bad result for us.I felt we actually controlled play in the 3rd period very well. Husso stood on his head. We could've easily had several goals there.

Yep. It was a cluster from start to finish. The two of them played it such as to give Saros no chance, failed to take away the passing lane, and left more than enough space for a flip in on the backside. It was fugly.It wasn't just the press in the offensive zone. Carrier and Josi compounded things with how they played the rush in the defensive zone. Carrier was on Kyrou, then peeled back to play the passing lane as they moved from the blueline to the top of the circle. giving Kyrou time and space. Josi peeled off Thomas towards the center of the ice, apparently to play the same passing lane. Then Josi bumps Carrier and potentially interferes with Saros repositioning as he tries to get back to Thomas who was then alone with room.
