Not their night.
I have never seen a goalie let in 4 goals on 4 shots, may never again. The only positive from Koskinen is at least he was pissed off. He usually doesn't show any emotion so I actually liked he was that mad. He was garbage and he knew it. Forget about it, move on, be better next time. He's not an elite goalie but he is way better than that.
I thought the whole defense was fighting it. Every guy was giving it away, pucks were jumping off sticks, they were missing passes they normally make in their sleep. My biggest concern is Jones. He had a ROUGH night AGAIN. Not sure what's up with this guy. He's not giving me much confidence in him going to the playoffs.
First 2 lines were OK. But again, I thought they were fighting the puck a bit which we haven't seen in a while. I hope the plan for Tippett is to get McD his 100 and not that I am worried he won't but the easiest way to do it, is to have Leon on his line. Then once he gets it, he splits them up. I don't think you can have success in the playoffs with Kahun - Nuge - Yamo on a line.
One of those games that nothing went well and Canucks came out hard. I thought Demko was very good but when your goalie lets in 4 goals on 4 shots, even when it's early, you aren't going to win those games. The team in the last 11 went 8-3, they were 8-2 going into that game. If you are going to have a bad game, get them out now. I try not to be negative so in my opinion while it sucked, maybe it was a good thing. Tippett will have TONS to work with when it comes to getting them to refocus. This game should remind them that while they are a good team, if you are sloppy in your game and let the other team outwork you, you won't win very often. Park it, move on to the net. Beat the hell out of them on Saturday.
I have to give a hat tip to the Canuck on the 5th goal. Oilers did will to keep him to the outside and not give him anything. The only shot he had was off the head and in and he hit it. He was clearly aiming for that and he got it! I of course don't like it happened against my team but it was pretty impressive. I watched it a couple of times and even showed my kids.
