On the 3rd goal, Stone just kept backing in, all the way to the crease, never once making a defensive play. I don't like hacking on players, but it was completely useless.
I love Stone in small doses, but when he has to take a regular shift for multiple games, it becomes a problem.
Goaltending was the biggest problem for a while, but it has righted itself, and IMO, the #1 problem this year is the fact that they just can't find anyone to run with the #6 Dman slot. If we could just ice:
Hanifin - Andersson
Kylington - Tanev
Zadorov - Weegar
I think we'd see the contending team most of us thought this team was.
