Bennett gets where he should be when he needs to get there, but he doesn't do much and gets caught watching the puck just like the other 3 Flames still on their skates.
Comixzone's breakdown is good. The one thing is Lucic may not be 100% blameless...he is coming off the bench and stops skating by the red line. A few more strides and he could probably get close enough to Haas that Hanifin isn't so desperate.
Lucic's steps on the ice while Tkachuk is still in the faceoff circle...Tkachuk was gassed after a long shift, but another half second could have put Lucic closer to Haas, too.
IMO Vali screwed up the most (understandable), Rittich/Hani/Bennett were all less than ideal.

Sam is centring the line and his winger is Lucic, and as the puck crosses centre ice it’s 4 on 2... and he’s just gliding. I say this as a Bennett booster, that was a disheartening effort. Our beer league centres back check harder.
Either way the entire team needs to smarten up.
