Mine is the failed pinch by PK against the Avalanche where PK fell down trying to generate offense. PK was the main reason that game wasn't already out of reach, then on the back check Patches picks up absolutely noone and PK gets roasted for it by MT. I don't know if this one play changed anything in the grand scheme of things when it came to the PK trade. We'll never know, I don't think there was anything PK could have done to avoid the trade, but you never know.
That play and what followed is seared in my mind as it encapsulated much of what was/ is wrong with this organization.
PK did not do anything reckless. He did try to create a play to score a goal. He tries to win games.
On the counterattack the AVs were contained and all were covered up until Patches eased off and let his man break to the net, and goal scored.
This goal was on Patches.
Down a goal, MT then benches Patches and PK, the 2 guys on the team most able to generate a goal for the team. LOL. You show em bird brain.
Post game MT says nothing about Patches, but opens up on PK and the evils of his " individualistic " play.
PK went against the game plan, which is to "PLAY NOT TO LOSE" and hope we catch a chance to score.
This organization has a rich history of tremendously skilled and creative talent and for decades now we are led by those who only know Trench warfare.
I say this organization dishonours the Jersey in its dazzling red, white and blue. Instead it must wear grey to resemble the style of play.
