This team is so frustrating.
They're getting to the right positions on the ice.
They're moving the puck to the right players.
They're supporting the puck well.
They shoot the puck well when they get looks.
But every step of the way it's too ####ing slow. It's like they forgot what game pace is. Top to bottom, every aspect of the team is too slow.
We can piss and moan about who's playing D on the powerplay or which lines are getting ice time in the 3rd period. None of that matters unless you can execute at speed.
Pittsburgh just won back to back cups on the back of playing fast. McDavid won an Art Ross on the back of playing fast. Vegas is obliterating every expansion team record by playing fast.
And we're slow as ####.
