Yeah, sounds like it. Still want to see what went wrong, they seems to be getting in a groove during the second. Did the penalty completely derail that?
Preds weren't pressuring or challenging anything but Vancouver seemed happy to just move it around and drop it back to the point for a long screen shot on Saros, Preds would then block the shot and then, repeat.
I'm not even sure it wasn't the plan. They had a lot of time in the zone but they didn't really do anything with it but just skate around the outside and shoot into legs.
Didn't call it against Nucks then right after called it against the Preds! Sometimes it looks like the refs are trying to tilt the game in one direction. Preds are battling both and WINNING!
I think it was for sure the plan in the 3rd. This team has been aggressive in the neutral zone all season. Last night, they just gave up the zone entries.
The dude is 175lbs soaking wet! Who is he going to move!
This is true, and also true in moments of the 1st, you know when we weren't on the pk....
Isnt that what a road game with the lead typically looks like?
I get your concern... but we gave up zero goals, scored an ENG, and won the game... I watched it live in full booty pucker mode. At least you can watch it relaxed knowing what the final outcome is.
To my untrained eye, Vancouver came out pushing really hard, as you would expect from a team down 2 at home. Preds weathered the storm, and once they got midway through the period and were still up 2 goals, they definitely went into full "don't f*** this up " mode
