Sven has had 3 professional coaches, Hartley, Huska and previously Ward. Really, its not the coaching, he simply does not have an extra gear.
If he can't step up to the plate, or if his confidence is lacking, is that the guy we want on this team? Thats why he gets to sit when the bench is shortened, thats why he is getting passed on the depth chart by other, younger, more eager players.
So, back to the game eh. Jooris = Keeper, speed, tenacity and skill/finishing ability. Gio & Brodie outstanding as usual. Gaudreau, not his best game, but with the puck on a string, wow can he stop time.
It takes a lot of discipline for me not to check the results before I get to see the game :-)
