Bad zone entry,slow change on Defense and an easy breakaway goal allowed.No one near the Wild Forward for that.

Graves had a front row seat there. How the hell did the D not pick up Gaudreau ?

The bad unnecessary pass by Eller didn't help.

Our team is built for speed but without any speed. Our four best players are all old and slower. You can see them trying but their legs just are not what they once were. If I was Sully and Dubas I think I would switch the strategy to be a heavy hitting team. Our top guys still have the skill just can’t keep up with the youthful speed other teams have.

Blomqvist needs to work on covering these pucks better.

He needs to work on stopping the many 2 on 1s we give up.

Two goals in under a minute - check
Goal in the last minute of the period - check
Sullivan still employed - check

Oh goody. We've seen blowing a multi goal lead, giving up multiple goals in less than a minute and now the give up a goal in the waning seconds of a period. What's left, giving up a shorty? Anything else?

Some pass by Kaprizov.

We’ve given up our obligatory 4 goalss minimum per game. Still one period to go.

Good job guys.

Didn’t watch all of the second but did Puljujarvi get hurt? He only has a little over 3 minutes of ice time for the game.

Or is he getting Sully’d ??

Letang with a weak lazy Fly By behind the net then Beauvilier doing zero to defend with any awareness and an easy tip in last minute goal.

Absolute and Irrefutable Evidence of Players not giving the required effort or attention to detail.

I'm going with "Sully'd" based on history.

Somewhere this should be prefaced by:

"Which one of these 3 things does not belong here?"

I’m just hoping this year is different. Seems like we always start off slow, get buried in the standings, then try and make a run to get into the playoffs and come up short. As a result, we end picking in the late teens of the draft.

Let’s just totally tank this season, get a top 10 pick and sell off anyone with value at the trade deadline and stock up on picks. I think anyone not named Crosby should be on the block.
