I wouldn’t have minded seeing Koochie in this one, but I’m not surprised Rod played Freddie. We signed him to be the man, and he played great when he came back.
I’ve never been a huge Freddie fan, and I don’t think he’s a championship goalie. I think we blew the game as a group, but Freddie let in some bad goals this series. I really wish Chatty had just kept Kreider stick off the ice and allowed Freddie to worry about Lingren. I also wish Aho made Shesty at least make a save when they coughed up a breakaway. Or Staal didn’t jam the puck into Shestys chest. Or we didn’t hit the post over and over.
Can’t put the whole thing on Freddie though I don’t think he was quite good enough.
It really bugs me that Peesh went out like this.
