Does anyone notice that at times when in the dzone, we can outnumber an opponent who's got the puck near, or pinned against the boards, and the 2nd sabre (usually a winger) will leave to 'be in his position'? This has to be coaching, and drives me nuts. I really wish I had the tape to display what I mean, but it seems like a lot of the time when we're playing defense, guys don't engage for the puck, they try to play this weird zone defense, and end up giving up wide open shots. This has infuriated me throughout Housley's tenure.
More Housley. His reason for playing Sobotka in OT? Defensive zone left-size drop. Stupid reason, as Sobotka has only ever cost us, or nearly cost us in OT. He doesn't leave the D zone without a goalie cover.
The compete throughout the night was embarrassing for a team off 3 days of rest. The 3rd min goal was the highlight of poor awareness and battle. Min wanted that goal. We wanted to play zone, 'cover our spot', nevermind giving up point-blank chances.
Okposo was killing any momentum on line 1. Mercifully, Housley saw this and blew that **** up.

The Pick. I was irate, and yelling. Still can't believe it was real. We almost lost the game there. WTF Refs?
