100% agree.So it was his fault that Krejci pulled up on Grabovski, and instead of taking the body he ( Krejci) tried poking it away and lost that battle? That was a brutally soft backcheck. Not Bartkowski's fault. The Kadri goal was partly Seidenberg's fault, but the pass from JVR to Kadri was sweet, also nothing Bartkowski did wrong there. He pinched beforehand but had support from Looch, which is usually a smart play but the end result was bad.
He looked OK. What did you expect? Not every young call-up is going to step in and light it up. It's not what they are brought up to do and at the very least we should expect them to play solid. He did just what I thought he would, nothing too extravagantly bad or good. His -2 is very misleading.
Bartkowski started off rocky but he had some great defensive plays at his own blueline that led to a few chances. The most telling for me was that he improved as the game went along.
