6-on-5 is officially an issue, need to figure out how to make it through without Bergy there to win every faceoff. Besides that, fun game. Always feels good to beat the leafs.
It's been an issue for years and years — going all the way back to the Clode era.

Last year's playoff choke and several collapses this year have put a finer point on it.

It's gotten where it needs to be can't be ignored. Something needs to be done, either strategically or from a roster construction standpoint.

Completely unacceptable.

This is bad lol

Listen, I'm not one of those people who get on players for being "out of position" in the pond hockey fiver that is our current OT.

But that's just lazy. And I don't know how he makes that decision in THAT game. After the 60 previous minutes. Bad.

I don't care about the President's Trophy or even playoff seeding; we've seen how irrelevant they are.

But it's the principle - the B's are terrible 6-on-5, and unlike 3-on-3, that is a factor come playoffs.

So I'm happy they won, but it is tempered by blowing yet another should've-been regulation win on the road against a division playoff team.
