I agree with this 100% we were making a statement, taking them behind the woodshed. A pushback was expected but Markstrom absolutely crapped the bed and all of sudden we were tied. I bet most people, myself included, thought we would lose that game after it was tied. It was amazing we stepped up and took game one but the damage was done.
How do you have confidence when you think you have to score 7 to win?
