You can't allow 2 PPG in a playoff game, much less 2 SHG pus 6 PPG in 4 games and have any success.  Add in our own inept 0 for....PP, and pffffff.

3 games, there were no special team goals in G1

This heroic effort of a playoff series led in goals and points by that famous scoring machine Martin Fehervary:

Fehervary 2g 1a
Wilson 1g, 2a
Carlson 1g, 1a
Strome 1g 1a
Lappy 1g, 1a
Protas 0g, 2a
McMike 1g, 0a
Oshie 0g, 1a
Patches 0g, 1a
Alexeyev 0g, 1a

Ovie and everyone else on the roster 0g, 0a.

Ovi said he was "healthy" during the playoff series. Just another example of being too old, big and slow for playoff intensity. Oshie proved that theory as well. Those guys should be buried on the bench in high intensity games, save only for PP maybe. Carlson looks like he's got another year in him, though not sure at 25 minutes a night. Be nice to find his replacement so he could get 15-20 max and be fresh at the end of games. Going to be interesting offseason. Hope GMBM doesn't  the bed. 

They were only slightly worse than expected in the playoffs. I figured they'd steal at least 1 game. No expectations of winning a series. Hope they can improve in the offseason, somehow, someway. Need a #1C and a goal scorer. May be able to survive with the D core, but a #1D who can produce would also be nice.


After observing Oshie all year, I've lost hope he has the "common sense" gene. He'll be back next year and play (when he's able) till he stops getting paid or dies on the ice.  Love his enthusiasm, it's just not productive to the overall performance of the team. Is what it is I guess..
