I was really hoping that we were done playing down to our opponents...
Wishful thinking I guess.
It just bugs me that we can drive possession against the league leaders, yet be chasing against the Jackets. But hopefully that changes next period.. at least we were a bit better in the last five minutes. And ugh, again making a poor special teams of an opposing team look good.. Irving was totally left out to dry, they had all the time and space to make that cross-ice pass.. little habits of previous seasons I see creeping into this one.
Also Comeau needs to quit giving the puck away like a grenade if he's going to play on the 3rd line.
Good period Cervenka. And Hudler/Tangs/Iggy, make it happen.
