Just finished watching the highlights since I only got to listen to the rest of the 3rd on the drive home.
It’s disappointing for sure because we were in it, but even aside from not playing our best game early on, things were clearly not going our way. Say what you will about killing most of the penalties but being on the PK for practically 1/3rd of the game won’t do you any favors. Couple that with how they scored their first goal and losing Zajac in the second, it was going to be a tall task to pull this one out.
I know it wasn’t our best game but I still think it speaks volumes about our team in how we stayed in it as long as we did. As Hynes said the other night, we’re never dead. Come out with a determined, better effort in Philly tomorrow and do another powerpray for Trav.
