Why can’t this team defend a strong forecheck from the opposition?

We could have scored on our rush just before that goal if we just SHOT the puck.

^^Truth

Every time we scored we followed it up with a very poor shift that led straight to another Ottawa goal. And now this small collapse late in the game, just very poor play. I feel bad for Lalime there.

I haven’t watched nearly as many games this year so I have to ask if Butler always looks this bad?

Butler has looked awesome so far this year for the most part, but tonight was not a good night for him. He had another one of these games about a month ago where he just fucked up everything.

I got to disagree, I have seen Butler make major mistakes in a lot of games, enough mistake for me to think he should not be on the team next year and that we should be shopping for a D man this summer.

Eh lalime should have made a few extra saves tonight…but hes been soo solid its hard to put any blame in his direction. In my opinion the passing killed us tonight. wayy too sloppy, such a needed win ☹
