I was at the game and people getting mad at Bennett didn't see:
-His stick was obstructed by a good defensive play by the MIN player on his shot off the post. He barely got anything on it.
-On Hamonic's goal it was Bennett who started it by making a good read and play deep in his own end.
MIN have guys back and make it very difficult to make passes through the middle of the ice. CGY was forcing a lot of plays early but got better at generating chances. Bennett and his line were pretty consistent - they were on for 3 goal but the team was pressing in the third.
CGY need to regroup, realize they played pretty well against a counter team just be ready to perform for the next game.
