It seems like in zone break downs and neutral zone break downs.

Its just a bit head scratching a Darryl Sutter coach team is so poor defensively and middle of the pack in goals against.
Goals 3 and 4 last night were on aggressive plays by defenseman.

Zadorov follows Weegar over to Kane. Why? He can see Weegar. Wanted the puck.

Hanifin goes after the puck carrier in the neutral zone with Andersson already caught on a pinch. Why? He wanted the puck.

But the rest isn't true. They're not poor defensively, they're ranked 6th in expected goals against/60, you can't do that with a poor defensive system. It's individual mistakes and average to sub par goaltending.
