Ceci and Nurse are two of the shittiest defenders in the NHL, full stop. Together, it's like giving the opposing team at least a goal a game in the playoffs. Un f***ing believable they put those two back together, and stuck with them. Atrocious pairing, with those two directly, fully responsible in their own separate ways for both goals. f*** both of those assholes, At minimum one should be scratched and the other offloaded in the off-season because he isn't worth a $6 million contract, never mind a f***ing staggering $9.25 million a year. Together, they are the trainwreck we've all seen and they should never, ever be paired up again.
Draisaitl and Bouchard were frankly pretty awful as well, though it didn't cost goals those two made multiple low percentage pass attempts that resulted in turnovers and some high danger chances. McDavid, while working his ass off, also had his share of brain fart pass choices.
Their goalie played great. We were completely sewered by two assholes on D, who together worked their moronic defensive magic to cost two f***ing goals. Bravo, you two f***ing geniuses. They actually outplayed them for portions and had some good work but couldn't piss a drop offensively. Hyman, Kane, Nuge, all lost puck battles and / or races, and the third line didn't contribute a f***ing thing, surprise surprise.
Skinner could have had one, but the blame lies directly with the two complete f***ups who absolutely wrecked it in the early going.
On to the next.. be f***ing better, Ceci. Nurse can't be better, he's literally a second pairing guy getting a top tier pay packet.
