I wouldn't blame Helle at all. I was waiting for 'playoff Helle' and he didn't arrive. That gold goal was an impossible ask. McDavid in the slot alone in OT should NEVER happen at 5 on 5. I was shocked when I saw it to be honest.Sullivan's gameplan was much better than I would have expected given the way some Pens fans blame him for everything.
The US had many chances to win the game, but it came down to Binnington making big saves and Hellebuyck not. Although if Sullivan didn't tell his players to never leave McDavid alone in the slot- that would be bad.
