This team is just beyond fragile and the coaching staff just has no in game management skills whatsoever. Even during the "11-game point streak" it was obvious the team can't put teams away. Just no killing instinct and play this pathetic prevent defense. Outside of 3 games during that streak they have continuously let teams back in.
Chicago - blows a 3-goal lead.
LA - magical 2nd and just held on in the 3rd.
Anaheim - blew a 2-goal lead, only to win it with 16 secs left off of a beautiful pass from Ferland.
Minny - blew a 2-goal lead in the 3rd.
Tampa - scored 4 goals after they lost Hedman.
Florida - good game.
Carolina - good game.
Winnipeg - blew the lead and never recovered.
Buffalo - blew the lead and never recovered against the 2nd worst team in the league.
LA - blew the lead and never recovered.
Edm - blew 2 goal lead.
Tonight - we all know what happened.
If any of the past 5 games had one fricken PPG, aside from the Buf game, we'd put those teams out. PP in the 3rd tonight and just didn't do jacks*** with it. No momentum no nothing.
Cameron's gotta go. GG's gotta go.
