I feel that the inability or unwillingness to adjust or read the game or read his players has generally been a problem with Gulutzan, so I understand the blame being hurled at him for this loss. But I don't think this one is on him. It's not as easy as bravely pulling Smith when it's 4-3 or 4-4. He's been so solid in net for us that I fully understand why GG would leave him in there to see if he can play his way out of it. Heck, I probably would have too.
