The issues start much earlier. Weak puck management in the offensive zone, trying to make something out of nothing plays, resulting in avs to quick transition and create a rush opportunity. Hence, forwards get caight, and d have to play conservative.
Avs strong d play is resulting in the transition.
This is ALL on the coaches. They have not game planned whatsoever between games 2 and 3. This is NOT a play harder issue, it's a play smarter issue.
