He's gonna get paid. 30 goals last year, will get more chances without Parise.

Definitely 2 on 1 because Engo was trailing. If Bortuzzo tries to stand him up at the line he makes a pass and its a break-away. Always take the pass away. The goalie has to make the save on the 1st shot.

Agree with the general thought of how you play a 2-on-1 as I coach hockey, and yeah, that's the correct play. However, Bortuzzo just gave up a lot of space by backing up and being indecisive. Typical rookie/youth mistake and Engelland shares a lot of blame there, but Bortuzzo allowed the 2-on-1 to happen by not stepping up and giving up too much ice too soon, imo.

Engo doesn't backcheck on the correct side, he attacks the shooter's backhand side and tries to reach around him instead of pressuring on the forehand side to force him to his backhand. Bortuzzo doesn't realize that Engo is a slug and thinks he's going to get that support, but Engo just wasn't fast enough to get back on Clarkson (who isn't that good of a skater) and become impactful in the play. I think if Bort has that over again and realizes the limitations of his partner, he tightens the gap a little bit. But he thinks he's going to get more support there I think...

So much concern here and nit-picking on individual players/plays. We'll be fine if we maintain composure and stay the course.
