Another shitty goal with crappy transition defense and nobody giving a shit.  Wilson coasting back and Bowey out of position.  This is bad. Very bad.

If I were Holtby I'd just quit and tell the team I'm not playing until you guys do.

The problems with the team right now are very obvious.  The D is very suspect.  We are able to hide that when the O is controlling the puck and playing much of the game in the other team's zone.  In order to do that you need to have quality play from the center iceman. Right now, all 4 of our suck.

Backstrom -- is apparently scared of contact at this point.  If you watch any puck that is 50-50 he loses the puck because he no longer will go in hard to the boards.  My suspicion is that he is gun-shy from his own concussions and watching Oshie get a concussion every season.  Whatever the reason, he is a great passer but he needs time and space and they won't give it because they want to hit him and he don't like that no more.

Kuzy -- has gotten paid and no longer seems to have the intensity he did when he was proving himself.  MacLellan called him out on that. He looks confused most of the time and when he is he falls back to what he knows which is skating and stickhandling.  He is absolutely killing us because he takes a whole line out of the game

Eller -- may have outplayed his ability last spring but he goes 100 miles an hour with no real thought or direction as to what he is doing.  Look at his inability to score and you see a player that is just not getting it done at a level that is required.  He is not making anybody better which is the job of a center.  And, he gets thrown out of EVERY faceoff he takes.

Boyd -- Is fine but has one goal in the last 12 and is starting to over stickhandle in the Kuznetsov mode. 

In order for this team to control games the way they need the center play has to get better.  Plain and simple.  There are wingers who can score but they need to be set up from the middle.
Yep, when the priority is “scoar more and let Holtby win the game”, this was gonna happen.

Of course we don't get a PP out of all that - did we expect any less?

Kuzy and Oshie a/k/a the "concussion twins" look horrible.  We put them out in 4 v 4 because they can skate and handle, and, apparently, go offside for no reason.

Are concussions contagious because it looks like everyone is playing like a dipshit.

Our defense is so fucking atrocious it's hard to imagine.  You see the D split once every 5 games or so.  3 fucking times today.  Unbelievable.
