He's not trusting his game like when he first entered the NHL, it's causing him to guess, and it's showing in his footwork. I call the Dubnyk disease: Version Oilers. This criticism dates back to late last year for me.

Geez. Or maybe it was the first game of the season for a position that takes some time to get back in the groove? You think goaltenders can go flawlessly from not seeing real NHL shots all summer to suddenly being peppered by shots? Pretty unrealistic ask IMO.
Man do some people overanalyze performances in the 1st preseason game.
