Definitely. Dallas has their matchups done too well at this point. They know how to shut down each line, need to change it up. Making it too easy for them

Dumping and chasing is a strategy that can often work. Dumping and not chasing though, I think that's just a bad idea. Wish they would stop trying that one.

Someone needs to tell the Stars you are supposed to play a defensive trap when you have the lead.

If you guys think Forbort is struggling, Kylington would get demolished with this forechecking

Dump to the corner, lose it, rinse and repeat. Terrible

Gaudreau - Monahan - Rinaldo is a new low.

Lindholm was bad in the playoffs last year too.

It’s just annoying to see a coach do exactly what the coach did last year to no avail. Take Lindholm off the top line, and shift someone else up top.

Try something new. Learn from your mistakes - even if they do date back to last season.

Zach Rinaldo should not be on the ice in this game. FML.

Why is Rinaldo in the lineup? Jankowski may not be a world beater but he's not nearly as bad a hockey player.

Rinaldo fanning on consecutive shots. Isn't there a better option in that spot?
