I agree with this. They made a nice play at one point to switch play from the left side to the right and quickly got it down to Kadri just below the goal line with tons of space. It was a good 2 count with both of the other forwards staying completely stationary and no option for him to pass. Ruzicka has to be giving him an option to shove it to the front.
Hanafin had a tough one, and looked oddly like he was having trouble tracking guys down on the back check, when normally that's a strength. Tired? A bit banged up?
