When I see the comment complaining about raymond after last night's game I have to think people are looking for reasons to criticize. He was not the reason for the loss, made no big mistakes, was forechecking and played pretty good defence. He set up a goal and created the energy leading to a next shift goal, plus he had a efw decent chances himself.
No player is immune to criticism, but IMO Raymond was not an issue last night. The team as a whole played a very inconsistent game. IMO Hudler wasn't very noticeable, nor was Jones (benched), and Jooris and Granlund were also just sorta there. Colborne had a very up and down night.
My own whipping boy for much of the season, Engelland, was phenomenal at both ends of the ice.
