Put Fiala with Staal and Zuccarello and let those 3 play the rest of the game

Just one of those games, 3 deflection goals against. Would've been nice to have at least gotten 1 point before the 2 tougher road games.

I know Dumba is struggling offensively, but there's still no rationale for having Hunt out there instead.

Maybe all that time earlier in the season when the 3rd pair appeared to be ok, it was mainly because Soucy was carrying the defensive load. If Hunt isn't scoring, he's a liability. He not only loses a lot of puck battles, but is judgement is lacking, and he is prone to mistakes.

The PP has been his ticket into the lineup, but if he isn't helping there, you have to wonder how long he can still take a regular shift. Would Belpedio really be that worse of an option?

We missed Ek and koivu's defense down the middle tonight.

Yeah, it's easy to forget that we're still down Spurgeon, Koivu and Ek. I think the team's performed admirably, but that's a big hit to the team defense.

Well that sucked. Saw no reason why they shouldn't have pulled out at least a point last night. They didn't look like they were slowing down considering it was a back to back and after a flight in to Chicago. Oh well...
