That doesn't mean that adjustments can't and won't be made. Game 2 is a complete different beast than game 1.

I agree for sure
But it can't be the coaching staff. I haven't had a water cooler conversation in six days without suggesting the key is to be ready to get positioning on Duck forwards that will drive to the crease. They won't stay on the outside like Canuck forwards.
Have to think the coaching staff said this.
It was almost the doing too much thing. Brodie trying to block a shot from the point and leaving his man behind him wide open.
But agreed, terrible execution.
