This game is what I mean by Burakovsky getting miscast consistently by the organization.
Why are the #3 line wings Bura and Connolly? They are both snipers, and who is going to get the puck off the boards? A lot of times Bura is in this type of role and ends up trying to retrieve the puck off the boards, which is precisely what his skills AREN'T. Bura and Smith-Pelly would make a lot more sense on a line with Boyd, and Connolly with Stephenson and Dowd, who could handle the defensive responsibilities on that line.
