Eh, it's a power play. They didn't make him move immediately before the shot, but the umbrella inherently causes a goalie to play in the blue throughout, and there's plenty of room for pucks to get by clean or obviously to leak through... or sit in the crease for a rebound. I'll take those shots all day if you're offering them. If I'm Laviolette right now I want everything on goal or into the crease at least. Hellebuyck is playing well; get them dirty. But hit the net. Fiala misses again a second ago and it's all the way back down the ice, pressure off. If you're going to try to pick a corner at least shoot short side.
