That was an awful game all around.
Honestly, I have no idea where some people are getting this from. Rycroft, MacK, PAP, Roy all agreed we played well but dug a hole for ourselves early on with a few mistakes that they capitalized on.
The only dangerous player the Leafs had all night as Kessel, Giggy only had a few scoring chances against him. The goalie interference one should have been wiped out leaving it 3-2 which might have changed the momentum in the game, who knows. On top of that, we clearly had the better scoring chances, offensive zone time and puck possession. The Avs actually played a very good game offensively.
Defensively we looked lost puppies, scrambling all over. But that's what happens when your good defender is injured/ill, your defensive guy is slower than molasses against a speedy forward (Hejda only struggles against quick teams) and your best defender on the night is your youngest PMD who also made a mistake defensively towards a goal.
