I imagine you'd complain a lot more if the reverse were true.
Hockey is a game with a lot of moving parts, including an opponent who also has good players. Rarely will you see every aspect of your team working to perfection. So I guess that means there's always something to complain about.
Yeah the signs don't point to a Stanley Cup quite yet but I don't think they ever did so one might as well relax and enjoy the games and the ups and downs that go with them. Especially when we win!

Oh please. I hate negative posters as much as the nice guy but it's not like I'm typing garbage.
The lowest CF% from a top 6 forward yesterday was Brouwer at 50%. Monahan (75%), Ferland (72%), and Gaudreau (69.57%) had their best game 5v5 yesterday despite all of Monahan's goals coming on the PP.
The highest CF% from a bottom 6 forward yesterday was Jagr at 30%. Lazar (14.29%), Versteeg (14.29%), and Stajan (11.11%) were below 15%. That's beyond embarrassing. Kulak has been absolutely fantastic in his role so far this season but yesterday him (20.69%) and Stone (18.52%) were absolutely obliterated 5v5.
We had 7 High Danger Scoring Chances yesterday. The bottom 6 had zero of them. We had 17 total chances for, our bottom 6 had a total of 3 of them (Janko x2, Bennett x1).
It was an embarrassing display from our bottom 6. With all that said, I'm not too worried. Our 4th line has been complete dog s*** all season but our 3rd line has looked great ever since Bennett was pushed to the wing and Jagr was put on it.
