Haha. What a game against the Sharks.
On the first goal of the Sharks you can see what happens if players don't understand what they are doing defensively. Holloway and Drai not up to speed with this coverage system. Skinner is who he is. He will only save the obvious ones, when he is performing normally. The goals today weren't his fault imo.
97 and 29 seem to lose confidence. 97 wants to force the goals but cannot make it happen. Drai, my favorite player and fellow German, seems off. Out-shooting is a good start, but shooting for the sake of shooting won't make a difference if the shots are not placed well. Badly placed shots only increase confidence of opposing goalies. This is basically what happened almost every game this season.
I feel that there is a lack of grit. The Ritchies can deliver grit. In some phases of a game or the season you need players who go where it hurts and let the opposition feel that they will do what it takes. I miss that from this team. Looking at the roster I cannot point to many who can deliver that and a team that wants to win usually needs more than 3-4 players of that character.
