The Kings deserved one on the shorthanded break, so now they get a deserved deflection goals. 2-2
Not just Bowey. No one did there job on that shift.
How does Oshie not shoot there?
19 will never score again.

Kuzy gave him his overpassitis
It is not 74’s job to come racing across the ice and play defense over on left side of ice. That’s not how that works.
For sure, he — and Caps bench - should be yelling to 44, if 44 is not noticing.
On the other hand, 44 is also supposed to recognize there are only four Kings in front of him. Where is their fifth player?
Further, it is not really correct to say 44 was “taking the puck carrier.“ Really, 44 was just retreating from the offensive zone, moving casually through neutral zone. He was halfway between puck carrier and cherry picker. The puck carrier was not a big threat in any way.
The main thing is to have awareness where all the Kings are and to keep them in front of you, if you are a D-man retreating from offensive blueline.
Am I the only one who thinks that Ovie’s stickhandling has been much better this season? He’s pulling off moves he’s been nowhere near the last few years.
