We have had a lead in the third what..once in the last 7 games? It's great to talk about our amazing possession stats when we are trailing the majority of the game. I agree with you...maybe a focus on getting a lead in a game and coming out strong for a change should be the focus. Even against Dallas, we had an 8-1 shot advantage...not one of those looked dangerous then got a PP that lost us any momentum and ended the period down 2-0 with shots 9-8. It continues to become more apparent that this is a back room stats guy and not a motivator/driver of a team...
