They've been double teaming Barkov in the offensive zone.
Neither Lyon nor Bobrovsky have really gotten the job done, but neither has been that bad either. As always this season, bad turnovers and sloppy defensive play is the big culprit for goals against.
There's a reason Ullmark looks as good as he does here compared to his previous teams. Strong defensive play will often make goalies look good. Weak defensive play makes them look worse than they really are.
Still, this one will go back to Boston with the Panthers about to be eliminated. We will see what kind of gumption they have after dropping two on home ice.
