If someone had asked which of our forwards is going to have a hat trick in this game Pitlick would have been the last of my guesses. He's certainly got my attention now. He's obviously at home in breakaways.
Dumba owned up his mistake, good for him. It was not just about him though. 6 breakaways said LaPanta. If we had switched coaches just for this game, DeBoer for Evason, I'd say we would have been competitive.
How many breakaways and 2 against 1's, 3 against 2's has there been in this game? The VGK is dominating in the coaching side if the game, nowhere else.
Walz also going on how good Gaudreau is, how it shows when one follows him closely. To me he looks like a warm body filling a void. Not Gaudreau's fault, but hearing all that bull from Evason and Walz just needs to be confronted.
Is it in the neutral zone we are losing this game? We're having difficulty getting through to the offensive zone, while they just seem to sail through it effortlessly. We're doing better in the d-zone and o-zone (the few moments we get there), IMO.
