One guy can't do it all by himself. North Bay is obviously keying on him, and there are usually two guys on him when he has the puck.
But Kingston is playing terribly. THey keep coughing it up in their own zone, killing any momentum they ever get.
Also, the NB goalie has been fantastic. But that's only part of it - the other part is that Kingston's shooting and passing have been brutal.
Early in the period, when Kingston was playing well and had momentum, Bennett set up Crouse with a wide open net and he fanned on it. McKeown also fanned on a great setup. And several guys shot wide.
It's lots of things. Bennett continues to show tenacity and is continuing to generate offense. But NB is owning them.
