If this wasn’t an elimination game, I would take solace in the fact that gaudreau’s finally finding breakaways again.
But this is an elimination game

Do you mean a Hall-for-Larsson trade?
Nah. That's a comedic overreaction. This management team doesn't have a Chiarelli and they have no need for a player like Larsson.

He looks like a head coach coaching his first ever playoffs. Hartley looked like a playoff hardened beast who'd been through the wars.
But gosh our "second" pair is a mess. Would bench them for the rest of the game.

This is what comes of 3 decades of more or less never being a cup favourite - losing as the favourite just feels so much worse than when you're the underdog or a toss up.

Team looks soft, unmotivated and gutless. Hard to cheer for that.

Who else is creating scoring opportunities on this team? It's frustrating that he isn't capitalizing but how about we don't embarrass ourselves and chase him out of town like Oilers fans did with Hall and Eberle.

Bennett set him out on both breakaways I think.

Damn. I just got free to check the score... 2-0 at the end of the first? Where is the heart? Was there a collective decision to roll over and die easily?

Because it sure feels a lot worse.

Way worse because expectations were so much higher.

How many breakaways does a guy need? Johnny lost his mojo at the worst possible time.

Gaudreau is the anti-clutch.
This just makes the eventual series comeback more sweet right?

It's true. Even the 89 cup win had a cursed feel to it.
