It wasn't Bean that pinched, it's that Andersson, Kadri, and Farabee are already below the circles and Huberdeau can't be the 4th guy below the circles
Agree that it was unreasonable for Huberdeau to expect Bean to be able to hit the net. Unfortunate he could not hit the net.

We can agree to disagree about whether it was a pinch, don’t usually use that word to describe a rush chance.
