That, and put the body to them. Even with “killer Zack” in the lineup, that team is butter soft and McDavid cries when he is hit, while Leon pouts and floats.
Get on them, make them be physical, stay out of the box and it is pretty much a done deal. Even crappy teams in the bottom third of the league like the Isles and Devils can eek out an OT win playing that way against this sad sack franchise.
Looking forward to a couple more weeks of this when they are out of the playoff race and planning another draft lottery party.
