Americans scored shorthanded. Abby players were being extremely lazy on the PP. Got hemmed in their own zone 4 on 5.
Then Backlund coughs up the puck a couple minutes later, under no pressure in the high slot. There was only one player within 10 feet of him and he tries to do a little dipsy doodle instead of just passing it out of the zone and 3 seconds later it is in the back of the net.
Like i said, the Heat look just like the Flames of the previous 2 years. Lazy, disinterested if they arent scoring, and hoping that Irving will just bail them out in the defensive zone.
It's no wonder they have a little fanbase. Their style of play is boring at best.
