1:23 to go - Crosby forechecks, wants the puck back.
1:09 Malkin plays the puck deep without any other players chasing the puck. A giveaway.
1:05 Again good forechecking by Kunitz who goes behind the net
0:44 another bad giveaway. This time by Kunitz.
0:40 RIGHT HERE WE ARE DEAD. Alfredsson got the puck, Kunitz behind the net and there's no other player forechecking, being aggressive, putting pressure on them.
I mean, the goal was awesome. you definitely have to admit that, but we begged for it and I totally don't get this.
We didn't even try to pass the puck around. There's always a guy open. It's powerplay! Don't just give the puck away. Don't let them pull their goalie. (Well, the goal was so easy, it wasn't even necessary to pull the goalie)
I'm really really pissed off because this was completely needless. Completely.
And every guy with the slightest sense of hockey saw it coming with Kunitz (on top of that behind the net) the only guy in Ottawa's half and no forecheck at all.
As much as I like Coach Bylsma, but playing the puck deep twice, no forecheck at all, I think this one's totally up to him!
