The forwards NEED to come back and support the D.
The games we won in this series are the ones that had fewest unforced errors.
When our Dman in own own zone has time and space....that puck NEEDS to get out of the zone and up into the neutral zone.
SO many times, they fire it up the boards for icing or just flub the pass and 5 seconds later the Blues have possession and are working on getting their cycle game going.
Once their forecheck reaches our D we're doomed..... no way around that....so you MUST make those outlet passes count. This is one reason why i think having Juolevi might actually be better than Benn or Fantenbug.... he can pass the puck clean and crisp.
