I get what you're saying, but when I see anyone say he 'cost' the team the game I usually equate that to the team playing well and Smith the only reason the lost. Which wasn't the case tonight. Even on the terrible 3rd goal Chucky should have had that puck out easily, but he had a brain cramp. That play should have never happened to begin with. On the 4th goal that's a penalty Backlund can't take. And the team in general just didn't play great.
Was the 3rd goal a factor in the loss? Yes.
Was he the only reason they lost? No.
Do I hope BT can upgrade the position somehow before the trade deadline? Yes.
