Alot has been said in the last few PGTs but a couple points I don't think have been mentioned:
1. Is it possible this team has already tuned out Hartley? The players seem very robotic in their play and in their interviews. No creativity, no passion, no battle. This is typical of teams who have given up on their coach. Warrener was saying something along these lines on the FAN on Friday morning.
2. Has Wideman been getting a free pass? For me his defensive play has gone from average to terrible over the course of this season. His play on Columbus' second goal was atrocious. Take the man, not the puck - that is something an NHL defenseman should not have to be told. My son plays defense on his Novice team and even he was screaming at the TV that you can't give a forward that much space and let him waltz past you.
