The issue is back to what Bingo said. You cannot change to match a guy who plays 26 mins a night. You need to exploit it. He’s not a perfect player, he's the best offensive player with below average 2 way play.

What we don’t have is a way to neutralize and flip back to burry chances. That’s on the first line. In game 1 they actually did it well and they dropped 9 goals, same with game before.

Not asking for 9 again just that he’s exploitable and a liability. You just have to stop the wow factor and play structured and you’ll win.

EDIT: Also, Woodcroft isn’t Bowman 2.0 either.
