More annoying thing about games like this is how the GWG against is the kind of goal we pretty much never score. No team let's our guys walk into the slot right in front of our goalie like that for 1-timers from a guy passing behind the net. This team remains pretty darn leaky defensively. I don't mean to just pick on McDavid either who just decided to not care on that one. Lots of guys on this team do that. Still waiting on Tippett to get this team fully mentally engaged, if it's possible. Maybe it's not.

Ultimately the superstars who win Cups play the right way defensively along with their teammates. You've got to do the small things be the difference on the defensive side along with the spectacular on the other end. On that same play there were 2 opportunities for either Kass or Drai to protect the net front, and finally 97 on the backcheck. Little things that maybe turn this outcome into a point. We're a ways from that yet.

Takes a while for the young guys to make that shift. Usually the generational players get to win a cup playing all out offense on a deep team. But, yeah, over time, they make a shift and start being fully in the zone in all zones. The guy that made that pass from behind the net, O'Rielly, that guy is a tireless beast in all 3 zones, never relenting, never giving an inch as long as he has the energy to try. McDavid and Drai I bet will be that type of player one day, just not quite yet. And if we keep sucking, someone else is gonna enjoy the benefit of it. And also in the mean time,if we have to play them >22 minutes every single game, they won't have the energy anyways to give their all in all 3 zones all year long.
Not sure what the excuse is for other guys on this team though, aside from how they are just not that good at hockey :)
