Rittich slid way over to be there to make the save. Not his fault Hamonic made a dumb play with his stick there.

It happens to him far more often than it should. Just like the good old Sam Bennett "waved off goal, phantom penalty" or Mikael Backlund "miss the open net."

At some point it stops becoming bad luck.

Honestly it's not that crazy. They're both bottom pairing defencemen, but at least Kris is a good skater. Kris's contract is worse though, so Hamonic has that going for him.

As a D man you should never reach to tip at a puck right in front of your goalie, you see those go in quite often. Let your goalie track it.

Can’t argue with Wards record but man it would be nice to see this team look prepared from the drop of the puck and bury a team in the first period.

Coaches say just the opposite. They want a stick on every shot, and will take the odd bad bounce. Hamonic tips a lot of shots away, maybe more than anyone else. It goes unnoticed.

Of course the Yotes are laying an egg against the Oilers, losing 5-2 in the 2nd.

Ottawa has no shots and leads late in the first period.

They have been the better team by far so far
Ottawa is leading despite literally not having a single shot on goal
Would like to see the Gaudreau line do something though

Really?

You allow cross crease pases without trying to get a stick on it?

Honestly in 50 years involved in the game, I have never heard that once.
