Then the icing when he is 2ft inside the blue line. So now he decides to fire the puck with intent instead of flipping it out or even skating it out. Just had to give the Hawks one last chance to win the game.
The following shift again he is running around without a purpose not tying up any player. Goal.
Sure i get it Sven is 21 but come on man.
Backlund was a sulking joke of a player last night talk about not even showing up at all.

Yeah, it's amazing how a coach showing absolutely zero confidence in you as a player (Baertschi and Backlund) can impact you on the ice.
I also find it funny that Monahan cleanly losing the faceoff is being ignored on Kane's goal. Baertschi jumped through the group to try and cover-up Monahan's lost draw, and it's Baertschi who gets slammed for it....
