Blame Kurashev, Murphy, and FleuryAnd giving up game tying goals
Strome couldn’t cover his area.Blame Kurashev, Murphy, and Fleury
On the tying goal, how is that more Kurashev's area than Strome's?Wasn't his area
Because Kurashev was guarding Ovie and lost himOn the tying goal, how is that more Kurashev's area than Strome's?
Who was responsible for the goal scorer?Because Kurashev was guarding Ovie and lost him
It wasn't Strome's assignment
Kurashev.Who was responsible for the goal scorer?
Who cares?That play wasn't on Strome what so ever. What did Murphy do? Fleury should have made the easy save. Strome was the least of the issues on that goal.
So Kurashev lost Ovie and the goal scorer? Did Strome have any responsibility on the play other than losing the puck battle to Backstrom.Kurashev.
When Kurashev lost him, it became Murphy's problem.
When Murphy didn't know what to do, it became Fleury's problem.
It's not hard to understand. Just use your brain.
I thought Ovie scored the goal. Apparently I misremembered it.So Kurashev lost Ovie and the goal scorer? Did Strome have any responsibility on the play other than losing the puck battle to Backstrom.
I would tell you to use your brain but that would be like asking Strome to out muscle an opponent.
Got it.I thought Ovie scored the goal. Apparently I misremembered it.
I've rewatched it, and here's what happened.
Kurashev lost Ovie, Ovie passes the puck to Sheary who Hagel lost, and Sheary scores.
Watch the play again. It's Hagel who lost his man and left Sheary wide open.
Strome was guarding Backstrom the whole time, until he sees that Hagel f***ed up and left Sheary open so he tries to stop Sheary from scoring, but by then it's too late.
Right, that's my bad from not remembering it properly.Got it.
The biggest "problem" with the play was the puck from the point deflecting off McCabe and right to Ovie. Afterwards, coverage is off by a fraction of a second. It was one of those hockey plays. Did Strome hustle on the play? Yes. My issue was you taking Kurashev to task.
