Honestly, Hronek looks like he's been taking defensive tutoring and tips from Myers later. It's not great. idk what you do with that contract situation...eeeeesh.

I thought we were going to do 5-man unit with close puck support to break the LA trap but instead we went back to dumping it in without speed which is just playing into their system.

And then they score...

Team can’t stick to a game plan apparently. Does not bode well for playoffs

They haven’t been dumping every time.

Yeah, that's on Garland. Slightly lucky for Moore to have been able to knock that down but pretty much any player can do that on a muffin clear.

Just feels like the team isn’t focused defensively recently

You have to double down on the defensive system against the Kings and then try some trap busting tactics to break through. We're chasing too many hits instead of being just as tenacious as them in the neutral zone.

Last entry before the goal they managed to backhand the puck across center ice because our F3 funnelled them in the wrong direction. That can't happen and yeah DeSmith has been poor but we shouldn't even be in these situations but we keep giving up the blueline.
