Rutherford must be taking notice, there are players here not worth their salary (or pending salary) who have put in shit efforts most of the playoffs. Get rid of them.

The team relies on aggressively forechecking which expends a lot of energy. When that's gone the entire system goes. Not sure if that's a sustainable way to play in the postseason with so few rest days, but doubt there's any time to adapt that and don't think Tocchet is interested in doing so anyways.
Except only one guy has to forecheck hard, they haven't played their position in the neutral zone after the first 10 minutes.

Both guys hard on forecheck is a mistake in this system but it can look ok for a time. But I think it's a mistake against a team like the Oilers.

Gotta test Pickard. He's had a easy time in there tonight. This game is going to give the Oilers a shit load of confidence. Have to find a way to kill their momentum.

I honestly believe Petey is the worst player on the ice at this point.

He’s too weak right now

We need to hope he builds some strength in the next couple of years. Otherwise it’s gonna be more of this

Sedins are good role models, they used to be just like him
