Brutal way to lose, infuriating as all hell. But that was a collective group ####-show, pinning it on Frolik being out there after his error is not very accurate in my mind.

I think the point your missing is that the team gets rattled and the coach doesn't call the time out. Throwing Frolik back out there with no time out when the team was rattled just led to another quick goal.
