The Isles look like they are on a pp when its 5 on 5. We simply are incapable of moving the puck. Also to be frank, Fleury only gave up 1 questionable goal that could be pinned on him in the first 4.
Also all goals but the last were the result of our team getting their ***** handed to them in their own end. Crosby and Malkin both have been sucking in their own end as well. Even Cooke has looked bad. The only guy who looked decent tonight in our zone was Orpik who was also just coming back for the first time in a couple of weeks.
The one thing I can say is the Islanders do not hold the puck in our end as well when they are being checked. But when we are not playing the body they easily keep the puck in our zone.
The funny thing is we look better in our own end when we are down a man than we do when its 5 on 5. Explain that crap to me because its so absurd I cannot understand it.
Time to put Engelland back in and sit one of the soft dguys. Niskanen, Martin or Eaton.
Every year since the cup its the same story with us, other teams seem to know how to keep us pinned.
I think its time to switch to a different system for the playoffs to mix it up some.
