In fact, Brodie was waaaaay closer to the play and even his skating couldn't get him close enough to Wheeler.

Listen folks, we have to stop ignoring the bad habits of our favorite players. They are not infallible. If they play poorly, it is important to criticize them accurately and stop inventing narratives where "Wideman is ruining Brodie" simply by playing next to him.

Brodie is having a bad year. Deal with it.

100% agreed. That goal is on Brodie. Terrible pass which caught both Wideman and Johnson off-guard. That's on no one but Brodie.

It's a shame, because I really thought Brodie had turned the corner these last few weeks. Hopefully just a minor setback.
