I didn’t say they played bad. Don’t get me wrong. They had some very strong shifts. But there were a lot of times spent on the edge of my seat due to a bad giveaway, or a missed pass, or a blown clearing pass, or poor recieving of the pass. No forecheck either.
They gave Carolina a lot of opportunities to go ahead. Miller was there though. He played a phenomanal game for us.
1st period had me quite concerned. 2nd they came out and played much better. I expect to see a MUCH cleaner and much better team on Monday.
And most importantly, I didn’t say they played a bad game. I simply was saying they didn’t play as good of a game as they are capable of.
