While I think they need to get another dman, I believe the entire team to a man have to change how they play. They HAVE to as a team decide to play team defense. That includes McD, Drai, Nuge, everyone!
If they went out and added that good defending top 4 guy tomorrow, it would help some but they as a team can't just leave their defense and goalie out to dry like they do. They cheat for offense, all of them. They don't pick up guys. Perfect example. 4th goal. Tatar fires a harmless shot, Skinner doesn't handle it well but he was allowed to just skate in right down the middle untouched and fire in the rebound. The defenders were off busy doing things, JP was right there. He didn't pick up the guy who was standing beside him. I am not singling out JP to pick on him, I am just using that as an example because that happened last night. It happens all the time with all the forwards. They need to add a dman but just adding 1 better defending dman isn't going to solve their problems. It's an entire team thing where the players have to decide they will defend all the time. This isn't a this year thing, it's been a thing for YEARS with this group with multiple coaches. Every time Nuge, McD, Drai go down the list of players, throws their head back saying "crap, I forgot to pick up the man again". That's on them. They know what they need to do, they just have to do it every single time and they don't. It's a choice they refuse to make and it's been like that for years. But you can beat your ass all of them don't forget to turn up the ice the moment there is a chance they gain possession. Every time one of McD, Leon, Nuge, etc decide to throw an extremely dangerous cross ice pass to a guy that gets picked off, that's a choice. Yes if it gets completed, it will be on the highlight package if a goal is scored but it's dangerous and costs them goals against when it gets picked off. That's a choice. Until they choose too play better team defense which is something they could do, adding a dman while it's needed, won't solve their problems.
People can go down the list of teams that have won the cup and they do not play the risky style, defense second style of hockey the Oilers players continue to play. Even the Avs who were a more offensive team and yes, they have some good dmen, their forwards don't play the all risk no defense style.
|
Not sure when the disconnect from Woodcroft’s initial hiring and now, but the team defence improved last season when the forwards came back and didn’t fly the zone. They looked structured and there was so much talk regarding detail.
It now feels like a Tippett team.

I don't get it either. It's not like you can single out a player. It's the whole line up. The worst part is they have shown they CAN defend. They were great against Vegas. Even in the first period, the Devils, a team that literally has a game plan to shoot from anywhere, had 5 shots. So what happened!
I am not going to blame the coaches one bit. This is in my opinion on the players 100% because a lack of a commitment to defense has plagued this team for many, many years with multiple coaches and it starts at the top guys. McD, Leon, Nuge, all the supposed leaders of the team, all guys who wear LETTERS, know how to play defense, they just need to do it. Backcheck, pick up your man, stop flying the freaking zone, do it every time. Set the standard that this is how they play. I heard on the radio today that Leon and McD this season are negative when it comes to 5 on 5 goals scored vs allowed. That's is absolutely ridiculous that those 2 with how many points and goals they score at negative players. That should NEVER happen if they gave a crap at all about defense.
