That line can not do anything with Eller on it, no line can. The play just completely dies on his stick.
9th consecutive game Caps have given up 3+ goals.If I can encourage literally anyone to calm down: this team and system doesn't often work when the whole team isn't really engaged. I think that's either part of how Carbery designed it or just a feature of his personnel coaching, but it's why the team can put up two stinker periods and then come out and win games anyway.
This might be the first real stretch in two seasons that they've been able to outright say "we don't need these games", and I'm personally not stressed that they look out of sorts. This has happened every time some guys are playing at 70% and others at 90% effort, we just care slightly more about them getting hurt right now.
It's hard to turn on talent and good habitsReminds me a little bit of how they played down the stretch in 2019-2020. It’s hard to turn it back on once the playoffs start.
Let's see how tomorrow goes, if they look prepped to take a win for their pride and still get caved in I'll be worried but I'm not yet.9th consecutive game Caps have given up 3+ goals.
