I'm not sure exactly what you think he should have done there?He was protecting the open side with a Canucks player behind the net. He was absolutely where he needed to be. Blame the other two forwards coasting back who were barely at the red line when all this happened.
Cover one of the 3 players that can actually score a goal, player behind the net without the puck means absolutely nothing. Now i see why ferraro is a good player to you, he is supposed to be guarding air according to you.

I just don't know how we fix this defense. We really need a good defensive defensemen. Our pipeline is a lot of offense. Every game it's brutal.

Dickinson is a good defender. Or at least has the mobility to be refined into a good defender. Sahlin Wallenius, Misskey, and Roberts all also have upside in their own zone with assorted warts and risk.

Plus defensive defenders are easier to acquire than offensive ones becuase it's offence from the back end that costs a premium. The league is full of grindy d-first blueliners that can be paired with the offensively minded prospects the team has.
