I wonder if they over tried to suppress shots so much they ending up making massive blunders to start the game.

Spend the first 10 minutes warming up the other goalie with soft shots only to allow a massive breakdown that ends up in our net.

Goes back to quantity vs quality. If we are giving up a few more shots earlier and Markstrom can feel them puck hit him I don't think the coach will be upset giving up 30 shots against if the quality is low.

Remember when we tore up the shot clock in Tampa and Jon Cooper took a shot at our strategy saying he would gladly give up all those shots we took because they are fluff shots.
