I wonder if some of this isn't due to no real opportunity to just practice and practice hard.
Boys were off yesterday (and 3 games in 4 days with travel made sense) and today was a game day.
But poor passing and poor execution seem to be things you perfect in a practice.
Ice in Ottawa was just flat out awful so I give them a small pass on the crappy passing but the ice in Pittsburgh was great-ice no excuse for the turnovers.
Actually turnovers are killing the team. Bad turnovers in all parts of the ice.
I think the team needs a change-I think they are complacent. Right now maybe a line mix up or two, but for the long haul, Chia needs to bring in some new blood.
these turnovers were done because back pass on last player in full speed mostly.
I am not NHL coach but... you don't even do it in SOCCER...
you can do it as surprise effect, it just depends on who you surprise...
